Cottage Cheese Peach Cobbler Bowl Recipe

Introduction

This Cottage Cheese Peach Cobbler Bowl is a delightful and wholesome twist on a classic dessert. Combining creamy cottage cheese with warm cinnamon-spiced peaches and crunchy granola, it’s a perfect quick breakfast or light snack that feels indulgent yet nutritious.

Ingredients

• ½ cup cottage cheese
• ½ peach, diced (fresh or canned in juice, drained)
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• ½ tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
• 2 tbsp granola (for crunch)
• ½ tbsp chopped pecans (optional)
• Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small pan over medium heat, sauté the diced peaches with cinnamon, vanilla, and honey for about 2–3 minutes, until warm and slightly caramelized. If using canned peaches, skip the cooking and mix them with the cinnamon and honey instead.
2. Step 2: Spoon the cottage cheese into a serving bowl.
3. Step 3: Top with the warm cinnamon peaches, granola, and chopped pecans for that classic cobbler crunch.
4. Step 4: Drizzle with a little extra honey if desired, then enjoy!

Tips & Variations

• Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best natural sweetness; frozen peaches work well too when thawed.
• Swap granola for toasted oats or nuts if you prefer a different crunch.
• Add a sprinkle of nutmeg or a dash of ginger for a deeper spice flavor.
• For a vegan option, substitute the cottage cheese with plant-based yogurt and honey with maple syrup.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day, as cottage cheese is best fresh. Reheat the peach topping gently in a pan or microwave before serving, then assemble again with fresh granola to maintain crunch.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use frozen peaches instead of fresh?

Yes, frozen peaches work well once thawed. Drain any excess liquid before cooking or mixing to avoid a watery dish.

Is it necessary to cook the peaches?

Cooking enhances the flavor by caramelizing the natural sugars, but if using canned peaches, you can skip cooking and simply mix them with cinnamon and honey for a quicker option.
