Ingredients
For the bread
- 250 g (1 cup) eggs (from 6-7 large eggs) * see note 1
- 250 g (1 cup) cottage cheese , full-fat
- 2 tsp Sukrin sweetener or sugar, optional
- 10 g table salt (approx. 1 ½ teaspoons)
- 500 g (4 cups) white bread flour
- 7 g rapid rise dry yeast (approx. 2 teaspoons)
Topping
- a little beaten egg or cream to brush on the loaf
- 2 tbsp everything bagel seasoning or sesame seeds , optional
Instructions
- Add the cottage cheese, eggs, sweetener and salt to a blender or food processor and blitz until smooth.
- Measure the bread flour and rapid rise yeast in a large bowl, stirring together to combine. Add the contents of your blender and stir together to make a shaggy dough (I used my Danish dough whisk for this purpose). Leave the dough alone for five minutes to allow the flour to absorb the wet ingredients.
- Knead the dough for 3-4 minutes on low speed using a hand mixer fitted with dough hook attachment (or a stand mixer).
- Place the dough in a oil-greased bowl, cover and allow the dough to rise for 60-90 minutes until almost doubled.
- Tip the dough onto a clean worktop and gently stretch out to form a rectangle. Fold the edges in (letter fold) or roll into a log, pinching the seam together to seal.
- Place the dough into a lined loaf pan and cover with greased plastic wrap. Proof the bread for 30 minutes and in the meantime preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Brush the loaf with a little egg wash and score the top using a sharp knife or bread lame. Sprinkle with the seasoning, or seeds, if using.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the cottage cheese bread is well risen and sounds hollow when tapped on the underside. Cool on a wire rack before slicing with a serrated bread knife.

Notes
- NOTE 1: Depending on the size and weight of your eggs you will need 6-8 eggs. Medium eggs in the UK are the equivalent of large eggs in the US. The best way to determine the weight is to use digital scales. Alternatively you can lightly beat the eggs first then measure using a cup.
- Any extra can be kept to use as egg wash for the top of the bread. You can also use all egg whites (from a carton) instead of whole eggs.
