A Creamy, Protein-Packed Fall Favorite

Looking to add a cozy fall twist to your usual bagel spread? Try making your own with Daisy Cottage Cheese! Not only is it simple to whip up with just a few ingredients, but it’s also a lighter option—with two-thirds less fat than cream cheese.

This spread is deliciously customizable and packed with protein, thanks to the creamy goodness of Daisy Cottage Cheese. Plus, the flavor combinations are endless!

• Daisy Cottage Cheese (1 cup): The smooth, protein-packed base of your spread.
• Honey (1 tablespoon): A touch of natural sweetness.
• Light brown sugar (1 tablespoon): Adds subtle caramel flavor.
• Cinnamon (¼ teaspoon):  Warm and cozy spice that tastes like fall.
• Chopped walnuts (3 tablespoons): For crunch and nutty flavor.

• Add a dash of nutmeg or ginger for extra fall flair.
• Swap honey with agave, corn syrup, or your favorite sweetener.
• Use dark brown sugar for a deeper, richer flavor.
• Try pecans or other nuts instead of walnuts.
• Not just for bagels! It’s great as a dip for fruit or cookies, or on toast and crackers.

1. Process cottage cheese in food processor or blender until completely smooth (about 1 minute). Add freeze-dried fruit. Blend for an additional 30 seconds, or until smooth.
2. Transfer to bowl and gently fold in fruit topping and honey. Cover and chill at least 30 minutes before serving.
3. Enjoy on bagels, toast, or crackers. Refrigerate leftovers.
