Step-by-Step Instructions
Start by gathering all your ingredients, as I find it makes the process smoother. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, oat flour, maple syrup, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and your egg white (or applesauce). Use a whisk or fork to blend everything until it’s nice and smooth. You want it to be lump-free for that perfect cake texture. The smell of cinnamon already wafts through my kitchen, and it’s just heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
