It features wholesome ingredients and a perfect golden crust, delivering a nourishing and satisfying meal that’s simple to prepare and adaptable to your taste.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 1 cup plant-based cottage cheese
  • 2 tablespoons vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley or chives)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a small baking dish with olive oil to prevent sticking and to add a lovely golden crust to your eggs.
  2. Mix Ingredients Together: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs along with the plant-based cottage cheese and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Add salt, black pepper, and the chopped fresh herbs, mixing until evenly combined.
  3. Add the Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the natural gelling agent into the mixture and gently fold it in to help the eggs set perfectly while baking, creating a creamy yet firm texture that holds together beautifully.
  4. Pour and Bake: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are puffed, golden, and fully set.
  5. Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the baked cottage cheese eggs to cool for a few minutes so they firm up slightly, making them easier to slice and serve.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a better mix and bake.
  • Watch closely near the end of baking to avoid drying out the eggs.
  • Adding fresh herbs just before baking keeps their flavor and color vibrant.
  • Mix ingredients the night before for quick preparation.
  • A ceramic or glass baking dish is best for even heat distribution.
