Basque-style means no fussing with crusts or water baths — just a deep bronzed top and a custardy center. Since we are leaning into the cottage cheese trend, we tried it in this classic preparation, and it totally works. You get all the sin, plus a little extra protein.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup cream cheese

1 ¼ cups full-fat cottage cheese

1 ½ cups heavy cream

¾ cup maple syrup

3 eggs

2 tablespoons arrowroot

‍

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:

Heated fruit with extra maple syrup

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F on full convection. If using a conventional oven, preheat to 450°F.
  2. Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender and blend until completely smooth.
  3. Line a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper, allowing it to extend about 1 inch above the rim.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is deeply caramelized and the center still has a slight jiggle.
  5. Let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for 1–2 hours to set.
  6. Serve with warm fruit and a drizzle of maple syrup.
