Blend your cottage cheese, almond butter, pure maple syrup, protein powder, and vanilla extract together until smooth, scraping own the sides as needed
Pour into jars, that are lined with crushed gluten free graham crackers ( I like Simple Mills Sweet Thins ) and refrigerate at least 3 hours for optimal thick texture. Overnight is fine too.
Make apple compote by adding diced apples, syrup, lemon juice, water, and cinnamon to a pan or pot
