Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, eggs, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until completely smooth.
  3. Stir in the oats and almond milk, mixing until everything is well combined. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
Baking

  3. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
