Method
In a high-speed blender, add the cottage cheese, honey, eggs, vanilla extract, corn flour and sea salt. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 50–60 minutes, removing the foil after the first 20 minutes. The cake is done when the edges are lightly golden and the centre is set but slightly jiggly.
Let the cheesecake cool in the pan for 20 minutes to firm up, before peeling off the parchment paper.
Strawberry Compote
In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries and raw honey over low heat. Cook gently for 5–7 minutes until softened and juicy. Stir in the chia seeds and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken slightly. Spoon the strawberry compote over the cheesecake and serve.
Note: Choose any variety from the Brancourts Cottage Cheese range that best suits your dietary needs and personal preferences.
