Yield:12 muffins 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them to prevent the batter from turning blue.
For extra sweetness, sprinkle a little sugar on top of the muffins before baking.
These muffins store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
