Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, I like to preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C) while I gather my ingredients. First, I mix the cottage cheese, honey (or maple syrup), and eggs in a large bowl, whisking until it’s smooth and creamy. The cottage cheese gives a lovely texture that keeps these cookies moist and soft. Then, in a separate bowl, I combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. I always make sure to mix them well to really distribute the cinnamon flavor evenly. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
