Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp cottage cheese (for a creamy, protein-packed base)
- 2 tbsp blackberry fruit spread (adds the perfect touch of sweetness)
- 8g grated reduced-fat cheese (choose mozzarella or cheddar, depending on your preference)
For Toppings:
- Peanut butter drizzle (for extra creaminess and flavour)
- Powdered erythritol (for a touch of sweetness without the sugar)
Method:
- Spread the base: Start by spreading 2 tablespoons of cottage cheese into the centre of your wrap. The cottage cheese gives the wrap a rich, creamy texture and a solid protein boost.
- Add the jam: Next, spread 2 tablespoons of blackberry fruit spread on top of the cottage cheese. The combination of tangy cheese and sweet blackberry jam creates the perfect balance of flavours.
- Sprinkle the cheese: Add 8g of grated reduced-fat cheese (mozzarella or cheddar) to the filling. This will melt beautifully while cooking, adding a savoury element that complements the sweetness of the blackberry jam.
- Fold and seal: Fold the sides of the wrap inwards, then roll it up tightly to seal the filling inside. This ensures that all the ingredients stay in place while cooking.
- Cook to perfection: Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Place the wrapped creation in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the wrap is golden, crispy, and browned. This step gives the wrap a satisfying crunch and helps the cheese melt into a gooey, delicious filling.
- Add the toppings: Once your wrap is crispy and golden, remove it from the pan and drizzle with a little peanut butter for added creaminess and flavour. Lightly dust with powdered erythritol for a touch of sweetness.
- Serve and enjoy: Slice your wrap into halves or quarters for easy serving, and enjoy the delicious mix of savoury, sweet, and creamy flavours!
