Curd casserole with oatmeal and apple (diet version)
I have a lot of casserole recipes on my site, and I make a few of them very often, for example, tender casserole is adored by the whole family. But now I have to look for alternatives as I am cooking for someone who has a liver disease. In such diseases, diet number 5 is recommended. I will not list forbidden and allowed products in this diet (you can read it on specialized sites), but in this recipe I used only products allowed in the diet, avoiding forbidden flour, egg yolk, sour cream, etc.
.
It ended up being a pretty tasty and diet-friendly casserole (even my four-year-old daughter ate it, and she's a picky eater). So I'm sharing this recipe on the blog, because even if you don't need to follow a medical diet, you can always make a healthier and more diet-friendly version of the dish.
Compound:
- fat-free whey – 500 gr.
- sugar – 1,5 tbsp.
- oat flakes – 2 tbsp.
- fresh apple – 1 pc.
- protein – 2 pcs.
Cooking diet cottage cheese casserole with oat flakes and apple:
I used soft cottage cheese, but if you take a thicker, rounder cottage cheese, then beat it with a blender or pass it through a sieve.
Grate the apple, squeeze out the juice a little and add it to the curd. Add sugar and oat flakes. Please do not use instant cereal, according to gastroenterologists, they are not healthy at all. Mix everything until homogeneous. If desired, you can add cinnamon or vanilla.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks and gently mix into the cottage cheese mixture.
I cooked the casserole in a multicooker, having greased the bowl lightly with butter beforehand. A portion of this amount of products in a small multicooker was cooked for 40 minutes in baking mode. I then cooled the casserole without removing it from the multicooker for about 20 minutes before carefully removing it to a plate.
If you don't have a multicooker, you can cook the casserole as usual, in the oven. Cook at 170C for about 30 minutes, but you can determine its readiness by yourself.
Serve with fruit sauce, and if you don't need to stick to your diet, with sour cream or jam.
Happy appetite!
