Baking Tips: How to Incorporate Cottage Cheese in Your Recipes

There are many different ways you can use Brancourts Cottage Cheese in your recipes:

  • Use it on its own, or mix in with other ingredients.
  • Blend it using a food processor or blender to create a smoother, whipped texture.
  • Use instead of cream cheese, yoghurt, or cream to thicken mixes and sauces.
  • Use as a topping instead of cream cheese or frosting for a healthier, protein-rich alternative.

Adding cottage cheese to your bakes is a creative way to make your creations light, fluffy, and higher in protein. If you normally bake with cream or cream cheese and other forms of higher-fat dairy products, this could make a suitable alternative – especially if you’re watching the calories! Or if you’re lactose-free, you can bake with our Lactose-Free Cottage Cheese. Looking to increase your protein intake? Then our Protein+ Cottage Cheese is for you.
