A breakfast casserole might sound like a luxury for those with time to spare in the morning, but this quick and easy recipe will change your mind. It’s creamy, flavorful, and faster than making traditional syrniki.
Ingredients
- Cottage cheese (600 g)
- Vanilla sugar (10 g)
- Cornstarch (30 g)
- Eggs (4)
- Sour cream (250 g)
- Sugar (120 g)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Base. In a large mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, regular sugar, vanilla sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks, and sour cream. Use a blender to mix until you achieve a smooth, cream-like texture.
- Whip the Egg Whites. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites with salt and sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Combine. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture. For added flavor, you can include raisins, nuts, or shredded coconut.
- Prepare the Baking Dish. Grease a baking dish with butter, pour in the mixture, and spread it evenly.
- Bake. Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F) and bake the casserole until golden and set, about 30–40 minutes.
