How to make this cottage cheese quick bread:

Like I’ve already mentioned, the prep is super easy: All you need is a bowl and a mixer. A hand mixer is perfect as there is not much mixing going on here. You could actually make it without the mixer as well.

Combine the sugar, eggs and cottage cheese together. Then simply add walnuts, flour and baking powder. Stir them in until well combined. And…you are almost done.

Pour this mixture into a 2-pound loaf tin and bake. By the way, I always line my loaf tin with baking paper. It saves me a lot of time cleaning the tin (meaning I just pat it dry or use a kitchen paper towel to remove any spills).

Now this cottage cheese bread will take about 60 minutes to bake. But guys, don’t be put off by the long “waiting time”. You can simply set an alarm on your phone and walk away and do other things meanwhile you are waiting.

Walnut cottage cheese bread is perfect for breakfast or as an afternoon treat. Spread some butter and jam over, make yourself a cuppa and enjoy!

    Hi, what can I use to substitute 1/2 cup sugar with? Can I use honey 1:1 ratio?

      Hi Kasey. I have not tested this recipe with honey so I am afraid I won’t be able to help you here. In general, honey adds more liquid to the bread so you might need to reduce it slightly, if you decide to try it.

    Hi Julia,
    Could I leave out the sugar to make this bread savoury? maybe add in some chopped chives and parsley.
    Thanks Carol.

      Hi Carol, I don’t recommend leaving the sugar out. You may end up with a loaf that has completely different texture. However, you can try, if you like. Or try reducing the sugar slightly. As for the herbs, yes, you can add them to the batter.

    So easy and great. Everyone loved it , I added 1/2cup of dried cranberries and a teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. The first one was so good had to make another loaf.

    There are ingredients missing from this recipe. It will no be soft unless there is some sort of oil or butter added. There is no salt. Salt brings our the flavor of baked goods and other cooked items. How about some spice?
    I knew this recipe would not work. (I took a professional pastry chef course from an executive bakery chef.)
    It is like a brick. A waste of pantry items and nuts.1 star

      Hi Susan. There is no need for salt as cottage cheese contains it already. You could add some spice if you really wanted. However, this recipe does not call for any. It is a simple recipe. The bread is soft and moist thanks to the cottage cheese. I am not a professional pastry chef but made this several times and never had any problem. In fact, I made it last week and had not had any issues. Perhaps you forgot to add all the ingredients?

    Can you use gluten free flour 1:1 ratio and still get good results?

      Hi Cathy. I have not tested it with gluten-free flour so can’t say. Please do let our readers know if you give it a go!
