Cottage Cheese Hot Honey Bowl (Print Version)

A creamy cottage cheese bowl with berries, hot honey drizzle, and granola for a sweet and spicy flavor balance.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dairy

01 - 1 cup whole milk or low-fat cottage cheese

→ Fruit

02 - 1/2 cup fresh mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries), rinsed and hulled

→ Toppings

03 - 1/2 cup granola of choice
04 - 2 tablespoons hot honey (store-bought or homemade)

# How to Make It:

01 - Divide the cottage cheese evenly between two serving bowls.
02 - Arrange the fresh berries evenly over the cottage cheese in each bowl.
03 - Generously scatter granola over the berries and cottage cheese.
04 - Drizzle 1 tablespoon of hot honey atop each bowl.
05 - Serve immediately to preserve freshness and enjoy.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It's genuinely good for you, but tastes like you're treating yourself.
  • The hot honey gives you that savory-sweet kick that makes your taste buds wake up.
  • You can have it ready before your coffee goes cold.
02 -
  • If your granola sits too long in the cottage cheese, it gets soft and loses its entire personality—timing is everything here.
  • Making your own hot honey takes maybe ten minutes and tastes infinitely better than anything bottled, plus you control exactly how spicy it gets.
03 -
  • Cold bowls matter more than you'd think—a chilled bowl keeps everything at the right temperature longer and makes the whole experience better.
  • If you're doubling this for guests, prep everything separately and let people assemble their own; the hot honey moment is better when it's fresh.
