  • Total Time: 0 hours
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • dash of crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup milk, at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup shredded zucchini
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped cooked bacon
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease with nonstick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled melted butter, cottage cheese, milk, and eggs until smooth. Stir in the shredded zucchini, shredded carrots, and green onions.
  4. Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter will be thick. Gently fold in the cheddar cheese, bacon, and Parmesan cheese.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
  6. Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt on top of each muffin.
  7. Bake the muffins for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack.
  9. Serve the muffins warm with butter.
