1️⃣ Prep & Preheat
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
2️⃣ Whip Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites + cream of tartar until stiff peaks form (about 3-5 mins).
3️⃣ Blend Yolk Mixture
In a blender, pulse egg yolks, cottage cheese, and salt until smooth.
4️⃣ Fold & Shape
Gently fold yolk mixture into whipped whites.
Spoon into 8 mounds on the baking sheet (like pancake batter).
Smooth tops gently.
5️⃣ Bake to Golden
Bake 25-30 mins until golden and firm to touch.
Cool 5 mins before removing (they’ll deflate slightly).
Pro Tips
🍞 Best texture: Use full-fat cottage cheese (low-fat makes them gummy).
🔥 Extra crisp? Broil 1-2 mins at the end.
🧂 No cream of tartar? Substitute lemon juice or skip it (peaks may be less stable).
