Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups cottage cheese
- 1 tbsp raw honey
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup blueberry jam (naturally sweetened if necessary)
- 4-6 oz fresh blueberries
- ¼ cup granola
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, honey, and vanilla extract. Blend thoroughly, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spread the cottage cheese mixture in a thin, even layer on the parchment.
- Distribute small dollops of blueberry jam evenly over the cottage cheese mixture. Use a knife or spatula to swirl the jam into the cottage cheese.
- Sprinkle the fresh blueberries and granola evenly over the mixture.
- Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for a minimum of 4 hours, or overnight, until the mixture is fully frozen.
- Once frozen, chop the cottage cheese bark into manageable pieces. Store the pieces in an airtight container in the freezer. Enjoy!
Notes
- Opt for full-fat cottage cheese for a creamier texture.
- For a creamier texture, blend the cottage cheese mixture for a few extra seconds, pausing to scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary half way through.
- Taste the blended cottage cheese mixture before spreading it on the cookie sheet. If you prefer it sweeter, add a bit more honey.
- Store any leftover bark in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks.
- This bark recipe is best when you let it sit out of the freezer about five minutes before eating.
