Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup (60 g) canola oil, or olive oil
- ¼ cup (60 g) milk of choice, I used oat milk
- ¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar
- ¼ cup (50 g) white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (225 g) cottage cheese
- 1 ½ cup (190 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups (210 g) fresh blueberries, see notes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir in the cottage cheese.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Fold this into the wet ingredients until just combined – avoid over-mixing!
- Gently fold in the blueberries using a rubber spatula.
- Pour the muffin batter evenly into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, or enjoy them while they’re still slightly warm!
Notes
- Blueberries: I love lots of blueberries in my muffins. The recipe also tastes delicious with 1 ¼ cup (175g) blueberries if you prefer more fluffy than juicy muffins! ✨ Fresh blueberries work best, but frozen blueberries will do just fine.
- Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
