High-Protein Apple Cottage Cheese Bowl
Method
Dice the apple into small, bite-sized cubes.
Place the apple in a small non-stick skillet or saucepan. Add the water, cinnamon, and sweetener. Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apple is tender but still holds its shape.
Meanwhile, combine the quark (or Skyr) with the vanilla protein powder in a mixing bowl. Stir until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of water until it reaches a silky consistency.
Break the rice cakes into small bite-sized pieces.
Assemble the bowls by layering the creamy quark mixture, broken rice cakes, warm cinnamon apples, and fresh raspberries.
Finish with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon and any optional toppings you enjoy.
Serve immediately while the apples are still warm and the rice cakes remain lightly crisp.
For the best texture, assemble this bowl just before eating so the rice cakes stay crunchy. The warm cinnamon apples pair beautifully with the cool, creamy quark, creating a dessert-like breakfast that's naturally high in protein. Feel free to substitute the raspberries with blueberries, strawberries, or cherries for a seasonal variation.
