How to Make Cottage Cheese And Egg Custard

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a blender, combine 1 cup (240g) cottage cheese and 4 large eggs. Blend on medium speed for 1 minute, or until completely smooth.
  3. Add 1/2 cup (50g) shredded cheddar cheese and blend for 10 seconds.
  4. Gently fold in the remaining 1/2 cup (50g) cheddar cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or dill), or 1/2 cup (60g) chopped fresh spinach using a spoon. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly among four (6-ounce) ramekins.
  6. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custards are puffed and lightly browned on top.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving warm straight from the ramekins. Enjoy!
