Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Blend cottage cheese, eggs, and milk until smooth.
  2. Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold until just combined. Gently fold in cheddar and scallions.
  4. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  5. Bake 20 to 22 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

If you do not have a blender, you can push the cottage cheese through a fine-mesh sieve with a spatula and then whisk it with the eggs and milk; the texture will be very close to blended.
