Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 200 grams Cottage cheese
- 100 milliliters Milk
- 60 milliliters Olive oil
- 100 grams Cheddar cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs gently, then stir in the cottage cheese, milk, and olive oil until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Fold in the grated cheddar cheese, chopped parsley, and chives gently until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
