I love making this on busy mornings. It tastes like something you’d get at a café, but it comes together in under 10 minutes with just a few simple ingredients. What's not to love?
ingredients
- Toast - feel free to use your favorite slice of bread.
- Cottage cheese - to make this recipe dairy free, you can use any dairy-free soft cheese alternatives.
- Honey (or maple syrup).
- Blueberries - you can also add other types of berries, such as raspberries.
step by step instructions
- Preheat your air fryer - This ensures the toast gets crispy right from the start.
- Spread cottage cheese on the bread.
- Top with blueberries, then drizzle honey on top.
- Air fry, then serve!
air frying temperature
I tested this recipe at both 200°C (400°F) and 180°C (350°F), preheating the air fryer for 5 minutes each time.
| 200° C (400°F) | 180° C (350°F) |
| 5-6 minutes | 7-8 minutes |
The toast cooked at 200°C (400°F) had crispier edges and softer, more jammy blueberries.
At 180°C (350°F), the difference was minimal; the toast was only slightly less crispy so go with this if you prefer a softer finish.
equipment
I made this recipe using my Ninja Foodi Dual Zone. Feel free to use the air fryer you have at home.
useful tips
- Use thick-sliced bread: A sturdy base like sourdough or brioche holds up best to the toppings and won't get soggy during air frying.
- Dry your blueberries: Patting them dry before adding helps prevent the toast from becoming watery.
- Don’t overload: Spread the cottage cheese in a fairly even layer and go light on the berries so nothing spills over in the air fryer.
