Tender and moist muffins packed with protein-rich cottage cheese and bursting with blueberries. A perfect snack or breakfast option.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk these ingredients together until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. If using, fold in the lemon zest and blueberries gently into the batter until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full. If desired, sprinkle a little sugar on top of each muffin for added sweetness and texture.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Best served warm; enjoy plain or with a spread of butter. Consider pairing with coffee or tea.
