Apple Pie Cottage Cheese Bowl (25g Protein, Ready in 10 Minutes)
Warm cinnamon apples over creamy cottage cheese with crunchy pecans — 25g of protein per serving, ready in 10 minutes for about $1.60 a serving. This is what I eat when I want apple pie at 3pm and don’t want to bake one. Warm cinnamon apples, cold cottage cheese, and a few pecans on top, and it actually tastes like the real thing.
Ingredients
Method
- Add the diced apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, and water to a small skillet over medium heat.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apple is tender and the liquid has cooked down.
- Stir in the honey and remove from the heat.
- Spoon the cottage cheese into a bowl.
- Top with the warm apples and sprinkle with chopped pecans.
Notes
Buy apples by the bag instead of loose and use the slightly bruised ones for this bowl — cooking them down hides the blemishes and they’re often marked down.
