Ingredients:
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1 ½ cups full-fat cottage cheese
2 cups pork panko (pork rinds crushed into fine crumbs)
12 large eggs
Equipment:
Food processor (or a powerful blender)
9×5 inch loaf pan
Cooking spray or extra butter to grease the pan
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the pan: Grease the loaf pan thoroughly with butter or spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Make pork panko: If you don’t have pre-made pork panko, pulse pork rinds in the food processor until they form fine crumbs.
Mix ingredients:
In the food processor, add the melted butter, cottage cheese, pork panko, and eggs.
Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined — about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Pour the batter: Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then carefully remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve: Slice and enjoy your carnivore-friendly bread! It goes great with butter or alongside any meat dish.
Notes & Tips:
Pork panko: You can make this easily by crushing pork rinds finely in a food processor — just make sure it’s powdery so the bread binds well.
Texture: This bread will be moist and dense, not fluffy like traditional bread, but perfect for a low-carb carnivore diet.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat slices in a toaster oven or microwave.
Variations: You can add spices like garlic powder or herbs if you want some flavor variety, as long as it fits your diet preferences.
