  • To make the hot honey, add the honey and pepper flakes to a saucepan. Bring this to a simmer over medium heat, remove from heat, and stir in apple cider vinegar. Cool to room temperature and transfer to a glass container.
  • Add the cottage cheese, olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of the hot honey to a food processor. Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth and creamy, stopping throughout to scrape the sides down.
  • Scoop the whipped cottage cheese into a shallow bowl and top with a drizzle of hot honey, remaining olive oil, black pepper, fresh basil, and chopped pistachios.
