Instructions
Pre heat oven to 200c/180c Fan/ Gas mark 6.
Crack the eggs into a bowl and add half of the cottage cheese. I suggest using a hand blender to mix this together or whisk at a very high speed.
Add the remainder of the cottage cheese along with the salt and pepper. Continue to mix until you have a smooth paste.
Add the Smash, baking powder and grated cheese. Fold together until you form a dry dough like mixture.
Spray a baking tray with Frylight or line with grease proof paper.
Form 7 Scone like shapes and place onto the tray. Spritz the tops with a little Frylight and place into the oven for 20 – 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow to cool on a wire rack or plate before serving with your choice of filling.
