Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup 4% milkfat cottage cheese, drained

  • 2 cups rolled oats

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or lightly grease.

  2. Add cottage cheese, oats, eggs, maple syrup, melted butter, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to a blender.

  3. Blend for 1–2 minutes, until completely smooth.

  4. Pour batter into a bowl and gently fold in chocolate chips.

  5. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.

  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

  7. Let muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese: 4% works best for moisture and richness.

  • Drain excess liquid from cottage cheese to keep batter consistency right.

  • Blend thoroughly so no oats or curds remain.

  • Don’t overmix after adding chocolate chips to keep muffins tender.
