Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Add cottage cheese, heavy cream, matcha powder, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt to a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend for 1–2 minutes until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down sides as needed.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed, then blend briefly again.
