Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup / 130g cottage cheese
  • 1/2 peach, diced
  • Pinch ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh mint, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey (optional, do not add if serving baby)

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Dice half a peach into small pieces and finely chop the fresh mint to get all the fresh flavors ready.
  2. Assemble the bowl: Add the cottage cheese into a serving bowl, making sure it’s evenly spread out for a creamy base.
  3. Add toppings: Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the cottage cheese, then top with the diced peaches and chopped fresh mint for vibrant, fresh flavor.
  4. Sweeten (optional): Drizzle ½ teaspoon of honey over the top if desired, especially if you want a bit more sweetness and are not preparing this for a baby.
  5. Serve immediately: The dish is best enjoyed fresh to maintain the texture and freshness of the ingredients.

Notes

  • Adjust the amounts of peach, cinnamon, honey, and mint to suit your personal taste preferences.
  • If serving to a baby, use low-sodium cottage cheese, omit the honey, and ensure the peaches are very ripe and soft to avoid choking hazards.
