Ingredients:

¾ cup fat-free cottage cheese

¼ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt

1 large egg

2 egg whites

2 scoops Unjury unflavored protein powder

½ cup oat flour

¼ cup Just Better Fiber

1 tbsp matcha powder

1 tbsp moringa powder

¼ cup allulose

1 tbsp honey

1 tbsp avocado oil

1 tsp vanilla extract

¾ tsp baking powder

¼ tsp baking soda

Pinch of salt

½ cup dried goji berries (soaked in warm water 5 minutes, then drained)

½ cup frozen blueberries


Directions:

Preheat oven to 340°F (170°C). Line or lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.


Blend the wet base:
In a food processor or blender, combine cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, egg, and egg whites. Blend until smooth.


Mix the dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the protein powder, oat flour, Just Better Fiber, matcha, moringa, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and allulose.


Combine:
Pour the blended wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the honey, avocado oil, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until just combined — do not overmix.


Fold in the berries:
Gently fold in most of the soaked goji berries, reserving a few for garnish.


Fill muffin tins:
For each muffin cup, fill halfway with batter. Place several frozen blueberries in the center of each cup. Then top with more batter until cups are about ¾ full. Gently press a few reserved goji berries on top for a vibrant finish.


Bake:
Bake for 15–18 minutes, checking at the 15-minute mark. Muffins are done when the tops spring back and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.


Cool:
Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.


Chef’s Notes

Blending the cottage cheese, yogurt, and eggs creates a smooth, creamy batter and improves texture and rise.

Frozen blueberries keep their structure and distribute cleanly when added between two layers of batter — a trick that helps prevent bleeding.

Goji berries on top offer a hint of what’s inside and a pop of color.
