Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and position an oven rack in the middle.
- Grease a 12-cup muffin pan well or line it with foil liners. Do not use paper liners as they will stick.
- Add all the ingredients to a blender in the order they are listed: cottage cheese, bananas, eggs, honey, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, and oats.
- Blend on high speed for about 45 seconds, or until the batter is completely smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ of the way to the top.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until the tops are brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack.
Notes
- A blender is required to make the batter for this recipe.
- It is very important *not* to use paper liners, as the muffins will stick to them. Grease the pan directly or use foil liners.
- Adding the ingredients to the blender in the specified order helps ensure a smooth blend.
- Letting the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes helps them set and makes them easier to remove.
