This avocado bread is high protein, low carb and keto-friendly. With only 3 ingredients, it takes just a few minutes to prepare. The bread can be enjoyed plain or used for making sandwiches.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Add avocado, cottage cheese and egg to a food processor and mix until fully smooth.
Divide the batter into six equal portions and shape each portion into about 3 1/2 - 3 3/4 inch rounds on the prepared baking sheet. I used the back of a metal spoon to spread out the batter into rounds on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread rounds are cooked and lightly golden on the surface. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving. Store any uneaten bread in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
You want to choose ripe avocados so they are soft enough to be mashed. However avoid using overripe avocados which tend to become more bitter when cooked.
You can add herbs and seasonings to add more flavor to the bread, such as Italian seasoning, garlic powder, or chili powder.
You can also add sesame seeds or bagel seasoning on top.
I used 4% milkfat cottage cheese but it should also work with low fat. Try to choose a cottage cheese with a high amount of protein. I used Good Culture brand (Amazon | Target)* which contains 14 grams or protein per 1/2 cup.
