BerryCottage Cheese Skillet Cake From Samantha Seneviratne:
This recipe comes from Samantha Seneviratne's latest cookbook, Bake Smart, featured in our video series, Break an Egg.

She suggests using any fruit you're in the mood for by matching the prepped weight of the berries for your swap. Though she bills it as a weeknight cake, no one will protest if you serve it for breakfast.

She also offers these helpful tips:
Cottage cheese does the same work as buttermilk and yogurt, adding tang, moisture, and richness to cakes. Always use high-quality full-fat cottage cheesethe kind youd be happy to eat with a spoon.

Dont wash delicate berries until just before you use them. The added moisture can encourage rot. Swish them around in a bowl of water and then transfer them to a paper towellined rimmed baking sheet. Gently shake the pan from side to side to roll the berries around on the paper and get rid of excess moisture.
