  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, blended
  • 1 cup apple, finely diced and blotted dry
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries, tossed in 1 tbsp oat flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Blot the diced apples with a towel to remove excess moisture. Toss the blueberries in 1 tbsp oat flour until coated and matte.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, blended cottage cheese, and cinnamon until smooth.
  3. Stir in the oat flour and baking powder until just combined. Gently fold in the prepared apples and blueberries.
  4. Scoop the batter into a greased muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake at 350°F for 22 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the muffins cool slightly before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Blend the cottage cheese fully before mixing to get a smooth batter with no lumps.
  • Blotting the apples dry keeps the muffins from becoming soggy.
  • Tossing the blueberries in oat flour prevents them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
  • Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added or the muffins may turn out dense.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • You can use frozen blueberries in place of fresh ones. Do not thaw them before using.
