Ingredients
- 8 ounces cottage cheese (4%)
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons gelatin
- 8 ounces heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon lemon stevia (or vanilla stevia, or your preferred low-carb sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
1. Blend the Cottage Cheese:
Place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Gelatin:
Heat the lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat or microwave for 1-2 minutes until warm. Sprinkle the gelatin over the lemon juice and stir until dissolved.
3. Whip the Cream:
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with stevia (or chosen sweetener) until soft peaks form.
4. Combine Ingredients:
Gently fold the whipped cream into the blended cottage cheese. Then, slowly mix in the lemon juice and gelatin mixture until well combined.
5. Chill & Serve:
Transfer the mixture into serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the fluff to set. Garnish with lemon zest before serving.
Notes
- Lime Fluff: Swap lemon juice for lime juice for a tangy twist.
- Berry Addition: Fold in fresh raspberries or blueberries before chilling.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
- Extra Sweetness: Add more stevia, monk fruit, or a touch of powdered erythritol.
