  • 1/3 cup melted butter (or coconut oil)
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

  • 3/4 cup cottage cheese (strained of liquid, then blended)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

  5. Fold the flour-coated blueberries into the batter.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, add the cheesecake mixture in the center, and top with the remaining batter.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, tenting with foil if browning too quickly.
