Cottage Cheese Oat Rolls
Jul 12, 2025These soft, savory, high-protein rolls are made with just a handful of whole-food ingredients—blended cottage cheese, eggs, and oats—then baked to pillowy perfection. Topped with chives or everything bagel seasoning, they’re the ultimate gluten-free alternative to bread, perfect for hormone-happy meals and snack plates.
Ingredients
Makes 6 medium rolls
- 1 cup (240g) cottage cheese (2% or full-fat for best texture)
- 2 large eggs
- 1½ cups gluten-free rolled oats
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (aluminum-free if possible)
Optional Toppings:
- 1–2 tablespoons chopped chives, or
- 1–2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning, or
- Sprinkle of sesame seeds or nigella seeds
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Blend the batter:
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, eggs, oats, salt, and baking powder. Blend until smooth but thick—like muffin batter. - Shape the rolls:
Use a large spoon or scoop to portion 6 mounds of batter onto the baking sheet. Use damp fingers to gently smooth and round the tops. - Add toppings:
Sprinkle with chopped chives, everything bagel seasoning, or sesame seeds. - Bake:
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until puffed, lightly golden, and springy to the touch. - Cool & serve:
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Can also be frozen and reheated.
Nourish Notes
- Cottage cheese provides slow-digesting casein protein—great for stabilizing blood sugar and reducing cravings.
- Oats support estrogen metabolism and are rich in beta-glucans for gut health.
- Eggs are loaded with choline and vitamin D—key for hormone production and brain function.
These are ideal for luteal or menstrual phases, when blood sugar support + protein + comfort is key.
