In a large mixing bowl, combine the rye flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, instant yeast, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm water, molasses, and olive oil until well mixed.
Gently fold the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until the dough begins to form.
Fold in the dairy-free cottage cheese, mixing until the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Lightly flour a clean surface and turn out the dough. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Shape the dough into a ball and place it back into the mixing bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Cover the loaf with a damp cloth again and let it rise for an additional 20 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve. Enjoy your dairy-free rye bread with cottage cheese as a savory or sweet treat.
