Description
Moist and cheesy cottage cheese muffins, perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped herbs (like parsley or dill)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners. Measure and chop the green onions and herbs.
- Combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and milk in a mixing bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
- Fold in the grated cheese, chopped green onions, and herbs.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Don’t overmix the batter to keep muffins tender. Room-temperature eggs and milk ensure even mixing.
