Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups low-fat or full-fat cottage cheese
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- Optional: Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or olive oil. If you want to ensure the bites pop out effortlessly, consider using high-quality silicone muffin liners.
- Place the 8 eggs and 2 cups of cottage cheese into a blender. Blend on high for about 20 to 30 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and bubbly. This step is crucial because it breaks down the curds of the cottage cheese, resulting in that signature velvety quiche texture. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
- Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese by hand. Pour the mixture evenly into the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top of each bite. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, or until the centers are set and the tops are slightly golden. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to prevent sticking.
