Ingredients
2 cups full-fat cottage cheese

2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup granola
2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (optional)
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
Wash the peaches thoroughly, remove the pits, and slice them into thin wedges. If using canned peaches, drain them well to remove excess syrup.
In a small bowl, stir the cottage cheese with the vanilla extract until smooth and evenly combined.
Spoon the cottage cheese into two serving bowls, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Arrange the peach slices neatly over the cottage cheese, slightly overlapping them for an attractive presentation.
Sprinkle the granola evenly over the top, followed by the chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
Add the chia seeds and flaxseed, if using, to boost the nutritional value.
Drizzle the honey evenly over the entire bowl and finish with a light dusting of cinnamon.
Garnish with a few fresh mint leaves and serve immediately while the granola is crisp and the peaches are fresh.
Serving Suggestions
This bowl is delicious on its own, but it also pairs wonderfully with a cup of coffee, iced tea, or a fresh fruit smoothie. For extra flavor, add fresh berries, sliced bananas, or toasted coconut flakes.
