Description
These delicious ham and cheese muffins are a perfect breakfast or snack option.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup finely diced ham
- 1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
- 2/3 cup cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour
- 2/3 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F. Spray large Silicone Baking Cups with non-stick spray or olive oil, or use foil muffin cups.
- Dice the ham, slice green onions, and measure out the grated cheese.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, Parmesan, white whole wheat flour, almond meal, baking powder, salt, eggs, and water.
- Mix until well combined, then gently stir in ham, sharp cheddar, and green onions.
- Divide batter between six muffin cups.
- Bake muffins for 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned on top and set. (If you’re going to be microwaving, I would bake about 25 minutes, for eating immediately I would use closer to 30 minutes.)
- Muffins can be refrigerated and reheated in the microwave. Be careful not to microwave too long or they will get tough.
Notes
- For the ham, you can use leftover ham or any deli-style ham.
- White whole wheat flour can be substituted with Flaxseed Meal or Hemp Hearts if desired.
