Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Blend the cottage cheese until smooth with no visible curds, then set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the oats, milk, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, reduce to low, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until thick.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the blended cottage cheese, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until creamy.
  4. Spoon into a bowl, add your favorite toppings, and serve hot.

Notes

If your cottage cheese is especially thick, add a teaspoon of milk when blending to help it smooth out. For a fluffier texture, you can briefly blend the cooked oatmeal off the heat before adding the cottage cheese, but it's not necessary.
