  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 6 muffins

Ingredients

– 3 large eggs

– 1/4 cup cottage cheese

– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature

– 2 teaspoons sugar-free sweetener

– 1 1/4 cups almond flour (or nut-free option: use the same amount of another flour)

– 1/4 cup coconut flour

– 1 teaspoon baking powder

– 1/4 cup granular sweetener

– 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or heavy cream)

– 1/3 cup fresh blueberries

– vanilla extract

Instructions

1-First, preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (180ยฐC) and line a muffin pan with paper liners or use a silicone pan, spraying the cups with non-stick spray if needed. This step ensures your muffins release easily and bake evenly. Whisk the 3 large eggs with an electric mixer until they are pale and fluffy, which takes about 2 minutes, to create a light base.

2-Next, add the 1/4 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, and optional vanilla extract to the eggs; whisk until fully combined for a creamy mixture. In a separate bowl, mix the 1 1/4 cups almond flour, 1/4 cup coconut flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 cup granular sweetener to blend the dry ingredients thoroughly.

3-Then, add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and blend until smooth, adjusting with 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk if the batter feels too firm. Gently fold in the 1/3 cup fresh blueberries using a spatula to distribute them without crushing. Fill the muffin cups, smooth the tops, and add extra blueberries if you like.

4-Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown, and check with a toothpick it should come out with a few crumbs to keep the muffins soft. Let them cool in the pan for a bit before storing. For dietary adaptations, remember that vegan versions might need a longer bake time, as mentioned in our earlier tips.

Notes

๐Ÿง€ Use full-fat cottage cheese for softest texture; low-fat is okay, avoid fat-free.
๐Ÿฏ Sweetener and flour types can be varied to adjust texture and taste.
๐Ÿฅฅ For dairy-free, replace butter with olive oil and cottage cheese with coconut or almond yogurt.
