Preparation Steps

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese and your chosen spices. Gently fold everything together.
In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk until frothy.
Scoop out spoonfuls of the cottage cheese mixture and dip each into the egg wash.
Roll each egg-coated spoonful in breadcrumbs for an even coating.
Arrange the coated treats on the lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm with dipping sauces.
