Ingredients

For the Cottage Cheese Base:

  • 2 cups (450 g) full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

For the Peach Topping:

  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon butter or coconut oil

Optional Toppings:

  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts or almonds
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
  • A small drizzle of honey

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cottage cheese: Add the cottage cheese to a bowl. Stir in vanilla extract, honey, cinnamon, and a tiny pinch of salt until well combined.
  2. Prepare the peaches: Wash and slice the peaches into thin wedges. Keep the slices relatively large so they remain attractive when served.
  3. Cook the peaches: Heat butter or coconut oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the peaches, honey, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
  4. Caramelize: Cook for about 3–5 minutes, gently turning the peaches occasionally, until they become warm, glossy, and lightly caramelized. Don’t overcook them or they may become mushy.
  5. Assemble: Spoon the creamy cottage cheese into serving bowls. Arrange the warm peaches generously over the top.
  6. Add toppings: Sprinkle with chopped walnuts or almonds and chia seeds if using. Add a few fresh mint leaves for color and freshness.
  7. Finish: Drizzle a small amount of honey over the peaches just before serving.

🍑 Serving Suggestion

Serve immediately while the peaches are warm and juicy. For a more filling breakfast, add oats, chia seeds, walnuts, or berries on the side.
