Cottage Cheese Protein Blueberry Muffins
These delicious muffins are simply made by blending up cottage cheese, mixing with eggs, protein powder, a mashed banana, some frozen blueberries, and some cinnamon and salt!
Equipment
- 1 Mixing Bowl
- 1 whisk or fork
- 1 muffin tin pan
Ingredients
- 170 g Cottage Cheese
- 150 g eggs (about 3 large eggs)
- 1 large banana 8-8.5" long
- 1 scoop Protein Powder Chocolate Peanut Butter or Vanilla Cinnamon are my go tos!
- 2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and grease muffin tins (not needed if using silicone tins)
- Blend cottage cheese into a blender until smooth
- Mash banana well but it's okay to leave small lumps as these will taste great in your egg muffins
- Add eggs to the mashed banana and whisk until both are fully combined
- Combine the following ingredients together into the mixing bowl(eggs/banana, blended cottage cheese, protein powder/ peanut butter, cinnamon & salt) and mix until fully combined.
- Pour all ingredients equally into each muffin tin and add the blueberries/fruit on top. This step is purely done to make them look better, I have added the blueberries with the rest of the ingredients in step 5 and have noticed no difference in taste or texture.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until eggs are set and toothpick passes through muffin cleanly. Let it cool for 2-5 minutes and carefully remove with a knife.
- Enjoy as a main dish for breakfast, a healthy mid day snack, or as a delicious dessert for lunch/dinner! For additional sweetness, you can drizzle with honey or maple syrup
