Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup almond flour (or oat flour)
- 1 scoop unflavored or savory protein powder (whey or plant-based)
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Optional: chopped spinach, cooked crumbled turkey sausage, or chopped bell peppers
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a muffin tin.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cottage cheese, shredded cheddar, and eggs until well combined.
- Add the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, garlic powder (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix until a thick, slightly sticky batter forms.
- If using add-ins like spinach, cooked sausage, or peppers, fold them in now.
- Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop mounds of batter onto the baking sheet, or fill muffin cups about ¾ full.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
- Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or let them cool completely for meal prep.
