This recipe combines the rich earthiness of rye flour with the gentle nuttiness of whole wheat and all-purpose flours, while low-sodium cottage cheese and creamy Greek yogurt ensure moistness and tang without the extra salt.

Ready in just over an hour, this bread is ideal for pairing with soups, stews, or serving toasted with your favorite spread. Perfect for low-sodium diets, this easy-to-make rye bread is proof that healthy eating can also be completely delicious!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with unsalted butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, whisk together the rye flour, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the low-sodium cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, melted butter, and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well-incorporated.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir with a spatula until just combined; be careful not to over-mix, as this can make the bread dense.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve slices of the low-sodium rye bread with cottage cheese as a delightful accompaniment to soups, stews, or simply enjoy it toasted with your favorite spread.
