Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk egg whites with an electric mixer until frothy, add cream of tartar, and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  3. Blend cottage cheese in a food processor or blender until completely smooth and lump-free.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix egg yolks, baking powder, and salt into the blended cottage cheese until well combined.
  5. Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the cheese mixture, then carefully fold in the remaining whites until no streaks remain.
  6. Spoon the batter into 6 even mounds on the prepared baking sheet and shape into rounded domes.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure eggs and cottage cheese are at room temperature for better volume. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
