Description

These are a homemade, crustless version of a popular cafe breakfast. They are soft, airy, and creamy thanks to the cottage cheese, while the corn flour provides just enough “body” to keep them from collapsing after they come out of the oven. They are incredibly versatile and can be customized with whatever vegetables or herbs you have on hand.
