Ingredients

  • 1. 2 cups cottage cheese (full
  • fat) 2. 1/4 cup honey 3. 2 tablespoons lemon juice 4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5. 1/4 cup almond flour 6. 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped 7. 1/4 cup heavy cream 8. 2 tablespoons butter 9. 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 10. 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 11. 1/4 teaspoon salt 12. 3 large eggs, separated 13. Optional: Fresh berries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9 inch round baking dish and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, honey, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the cottage cheese mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until slightly thickened. Stir in the heavy cream and melted butter. Pour this mixture into the cottage cheese mixture, stirring well to combine.
  5. In another clean bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the cake batter, taking care not to deflate them.
  6. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 35 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before serving.
  8. To serve, garnish with chopped walnuts and fresh berries if desired. Enjoy your Keto Russian Honey Cottage Cheese Delight!

Chef’s Insight

The key to achieving a smooth texture in this dish is ensuring all ingredients are well combined and the egg whites are beaten until stiff peaks form.

Notes

For a richer dessert, consider using a full-fat whipping cream instead of regular heavy cream.
