This High-Protein Breakfast Tastes Like Dessert | Orange & Honey Breakfast Bake

Soft. Creamy. Naturally sweet. And packed with protein. 🍊🍯 This Orange & Honey Protein Breakfast Bake is one of those wonderfully simple recipes that feels far more indulgent than it actually is. Made with cottage cheese, eggs, honey, fresh orange zest, and just a little rice flour, everything goes straight into the blender. No complicated mixing, no long ingredient list, and very little prep. The result is a beautifully golden breakfast bake with a soft, silky, almost custard-like centre, somewhere between a baked cheesecake and a creamy breakfast pudding. And yes… cottage cheese is the secret. 🤍 🍊 ORANGE & HONEY PROTEIN BREAKFAST BAKE Ingredients 660 g high-protein cottage cheese 4 large eggs 50 g rice flour 150 g honey Finely grated zest of 1 orange To serve, optional A little extra orange zest A very light drizzle of honey Fresh berries Method Preheat the oven to 170–180°C fan / 340–355°F. Line a shallow baking pan or baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Add the cottage cheese, eggs, rice flour, honey, and orange zest to a blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, with no visible pieces of cottage cheese remaining. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and gently level the surface. Bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the centre is set and the top is deeply golden. The exact baking time can vary depending on the size and depth of your pan, so watch the texture rather than the clock. You want it set but still soft and creamy inside, not dry or cake-like. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing. Serve simply with a little fresh orange zest and, if you like, a tiny drizzle of honey. It’s lovely warm, but I especially like the texture once it has had a little time to settle. Bake once. Slice. Store. Breakfast is ready. ☕️🍊 Perfect for busy mornings, meal prep, or those days when breakfast needs to feel just a little bit special.
