Apple Pie Banana Cottage Cheese Muffins

Ingredients:
β€’ 1 cup cottage cheese
β€’ 1 ripe banana
β€’ 2 large eggs
β€’ 1/4 cup honey
β€’ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
β€’ 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
β€’ 1 teaspoon baking powder
β€’ 1 teaspoon cinnamon
β€’ 1/4 teaspoon salt
β€’ 1 cup peeled diced apples
β€’ 2 tablespoons melted butter

Methods:

Heat oven to 350 F and grease or line a muffin pan.
Blend the cottage cheese, banana, eggs, honey, vanilla, and melted butter until smooth and creamy.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients just until combined, then fold in the diced apples gently.
Divide the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about three quarters full.
Bake for 18 to 22 minutes until the tops are lightly golden and the centers spring back when touched.
Let them cool slightly before serving. The apples stay soft, the banana keeps them moist, and every bite feels warm and homemade.
