Curd muffins in the oven in silicone molds

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make cottage cheese muffins in the oven in silicone molds? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Take good quality butter, as the taste of the baked goods will depend on it. Cottage cheese is suitable for any fat content. It is better that it is pasty, smooth, and not too wet. Rub the grainy cottage cheese through a sieve or beat in a blender until it has a homogeneous consistency without lumps.

2. STEP 2

   

   Sift the flour into a suitable container. This is necessary in order to enrich it with oxygen, then the baked goods will be fluffy and airy.

3. STEP 3

   

   Beat the eggs into a deep, dry container, making sure to wash them first and wipe them dry with paper towels. Add a pinch of salt and beat with a mixer until fluffy.

4. STEP 4

   

   Without stopping whipping, add sugar little by little. Continue beating with the mixer until the mixture turns light and fluffy.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add pureed cottage cheese to the egg mixture. Beat with a mixer until smooth.

6. STEP 6

   

   Melt the butter in a water bath or in the microwave. Add to the total mass and beat everything with a mixer again.

7. STEP 7

   

   Mix some of the flour with baking powder so that it is evenly distributed throughout the dough. Add flour, but not all at once, but in parts. Each time, knead the dough well with a spoon or silicone spatula. Please note that you may need more or less flour than indicated in the recipe. Focus on the consistency of the dough. It should be a little thicker than on pancakes.

8. STEP 8

   

   Silicone molds do not need to be greased with anything beforehand, since the dough already contains oil and the baked goods will not stick to the silicone. Fill the molds to 2/3 of the height (about 1 tablespoon) with dough. Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 30 minutes (I have an electric oven with top-bottom mode). Focus on your oven.

9. STEP 9

   

   How to determine the readiness of muffins? Focus on the color of the baked goods. When the muffins are browned, pierce them with a wooden skewer or toothpick. If it comes out dry, without any sticky dough, it's ready. Remove baked goods from the oven. Cool slightly and remove from the molds while still warm. You can decorate the muffins with powdered sugar, fresh berries, and fresh mint leaves.

10. STEP 10

    

    The texture of the muffins turned out to be airy, dense, although quite loose. Pastries are perfect for breakfast with a cup of tea or coffee.

I was looking for a recipe for cottage cheese baking on the website; I needed to use the leftover cottage cheese. And I found this wonderful muffin recipe. They are simply perfect! The dough is fluffy, porous, incredibly soft. Delicious crispy crust on top. The quantity of products was precisely measured, it turned out to be exactly 10 pieces. It’s not enough for our family, of course, the muffins were literally divided into pieces) Next time I’ll increase the portion two or three times. In addition, the dough is kneaded simply and quickly and they bake in no time at all. I recommend this delicious pastry to everyone!

It turned out a little differently. Perhaps because of the cottage cheese. But still not bad.
