Ingredients
- – 3 large eggs (190g), very fresh, separated
- – 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) cream of tartar or 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) baking powder
- – 3 oz (85g) beef cottage cheese, ideally full fat (4%)
- – 1 teaspoon (5 ml) olive oil, extra virgin
- – 1/4 tsp (1 ml) garlic powder
- – 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) Italian herbs or herbs de Provence
- – 1/8 teaspoon (1 ml) sea salt
Instructions
- Begin by setting your oven to 300°F (150°C) for preheating. Prepare a baking tray by covering it with parchment paper and lightly brushing the paper with oil—this step is crucial!
- Carefully divide the eggs into whites and yolks. In a large, pristine bowl, whisk the egg whites together with cream of tartar using an electric mixer until they form firm peaks. Dedicate at least 2 minutes to this task to ensure the air bubbles are robust and small.
- In a blender, combine the egg yolks with cottage cheese, olive oil, and the spices, blending until the mixture is utterly smooth and velvety.
- Gradually and gently incorporate the egg whites into the cottage cheese blend with a spatula. Use a folding technique to mix, ensuring the air bubbles remain intact.
- Portion the batter into 6 round mounds on the parchment-covered tray, ensuring there is space between each one since the batter will expand slightly while baking.
- Bake for approximately 25 to 35 minutes until they turn a golden color. To check if they are done, lightly press the tops of the bread. They should have a springy texture. The exact baking time may vary based on the thickness of the breads.
