Instructions

1

Scoop the Base

Add one full cup of cottage cheese to a wide shallow bowl and smooth it out gently with the back of a spoon.

2

Add Fruit Toppings

Scatter the mixed fresh berries evenly over the cottage cheese for color and freshness.

3

Add Crunch and Texture

Sprinkle granola, chia seeds, and roughly chopped almonds over the bowl for satisfying crunch.

4

Drizzle Toppings

Add a dollop of almond butter and drizzle honey generously over the entire bowl.

5

Finish and Serve

Dust lightly with cinnamon and serve immediately. Do not let it sit too long before eating or the granola will soften.

Common mistakes

⚠Using watery cottage cheese makes the bowl runny so drain it first if needed
⚠Adding granola too early causes it to become soggy before eating
⚠Overloading with too many toppings masks the flavor of the cottage cheese base
