Method

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 5.5-inch (14 cm) baking dish.
2. Mix the cottage cheese, egg, egg whites, almond flour, coconut flour, chia, vanilla, lemon zest, sweetener, and salt. Rest for 5 minutes so the chia swells.
3. Pour into the dish and scatter the berries over the top.
4. Bake for 20–22 minutes, until set in the middle and golden at the edge. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
