Feeding the throngs during the holidays. Overnight guests and long-lost relatives, all gathered in the kitchen for breakfast. How about an easy fast way to feed the hungry – fast? Cue Cottage Cheese Muffins.
From my files at the Dragonfly inn, this is perhaps one of my most surprising recipes. High in proteins, a few simple convenient ingredients mix gently and pop them in the oven for 20 minutes and… ta da… BREAKFAST.
Serve warm with strawberries and sour cream or with pair them with a sweet strawberry rhubarb jam… and get that gang out of the house for some holiday fun!

Muffins like a light hand. It’s like Grandma used to say:
“If you beat your muffins, they’ll just be tough!”
Gosh, somehow that sounded so different when Grandma said it…
