Warm, fluffy, and high in protein, this keto mug bread is made with cottage cheese and ground chiano flour needed. Ready in 3 minutes and gluten-free!

Instructions

  • Add the cottage cheese to a blender or use an immersion blender and blend until smooth.
    3 tablespoons full-fat cottage cheese
  • Add the ground chia seeds, egg, baking powder, and salt. Blend again until fully combined.
    1 tablespoon ground chia seeds, 1 large egg, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • Pour the batter into a greased microwave-safe mug or ramekin.
  • Let the mixture rest for 1–2 minutes to allow the chia seeds to begin thickening.
  • Microwave on medium heat for 2 minutes. If still wet in the center, microwave in 30-second intervals (usually done at 3 minutes total).
  • Let cool slightly before removing. Slice and serve with your favorite toppings—or enjoy straight from the mug!

Notes

  • For best texture, don’t skip the blending step. Smooth cottage cheese makes all the difference.
  • Ground chia seeds are not the same as whole - grind them fresh or buy pre-ground.
  • Want a richer flavor? Add 1 tsp melted butter to the batter.
  • Craving a crisp edge? Toast the cooked bread in a hot pan with olive oil or butter for 30 seconds.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1–2 days.
