Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup oat bran
  • 1 cup water
  • 3-4 tbsp coconut flakes (unsweetened)
  • 1 scoop unflavored or vanilla whey protein (or 4 tbsp powdered milk)
  • 4 egg whites (or 2 whole eggs)
  • 1-2 tbsp sugar-free vanilla pudding (powder)
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • Zest of one lemon
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 5.3 oz cottage cheese (150 grams)
  • Stevia to taste

Optional ingredients

  • Lemon or vanilla extract
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup goji berries or cranberries

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and mix until smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into a baking dish.
  • If desired, sprinkle a few oat flakes, coconut flakes, dried berries, or chopped nuts over the top.
  • Bake at 175°C / 350°F for 30–35 minutes.
