Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cups Cottage cheese
• 1 cups Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
• 0.25 cups Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Then add the melted butter, vanilla extract, cottage cheese, and milk. Whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them, especially if using fresh ones.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 9

Enjoy your Blueberry Cottage Cheese Muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
