Cottage Cheese Omelet Muffins are a quick, healthy, and portable breakfast option. Packed with eggs, creamy cottage cheese, and fresh veggies, these muffins are perfect for busy mornings or meal prep. They’re fluffy, flavorful, and customizable to suit your taste!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup reduced-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup green peppers, chopped
  • 1/4 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup broccoli, chopped
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or line with parchment paper liners.
  2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Stir in the cottage cheese, green peppers, onion, broccoli, tomato, and shredded cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until evenly combined.
  3. Fill the Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  4. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes or until the muffins are puffed up and golden around the edges. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the muffins cool slightly before removing them from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Serving Suggestions:

  • Pair with fresh fruit or whole-grain toast for a balanced breakfast.
  • Great as a grab-and-go snack or brunch addition.

Tips & Tricks:

  • Don’t overmix the egg mixture—this keeps the muffins light and fluffy.
  • Muffins may deflate slightly as they cool; this is normal due to their airy texture.

Storage & Reheating:

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds or in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5–10 minutes.
  • To freeze, wrap each muffin individually and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Reheat directly from frozen in the oven or microwave.
