Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter
1 1/2 cups flour (all-purpose or whole wheat)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1/4 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, honey, vanilla, and melted oil. Blend until smooth.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Pour the wet cottage cheese mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Add the milk and gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Use oat flour to make these gluten-free. For extra healthy fats, replace half the flour with almond flour. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
