3. Then add non-sour cottage cheese of any fat content. If desired, it can be rubbed through a sieve. Stir the cottage cheese into the egg mixture. We need to get curd puree without lumps.
4. As soon as this happens, add flour and knead the dough. It will be thick, so it is best to stir it with a fork.
5. Grease silicone molds vegetable oil and pour 2/3 of the dough into them. We will not pour it to the edge, as the dough will increase during baking and may leak out of the molds.
6. Place the molds on a baking sheet, and then in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes at 200C until the surface is golden brown.

Note to the hostess
1. Muffins easily come away from paper molds and parchment trays, sprinkled with semolina before baking. In contact with the hot dough, the grains soften and then are practically not felt. If the housewife overdoes it with the sprinkles, she can remove the excess with a clean, dry sponge or silicone brush after the cupcakes have cooled. \
2. Eggs turn into foam faster when the beating process takes place in a chilled container. And they themselves must be very cold.
3. Skim cheese as an ingredient in muffin dough, it is preferable to fat. Dietary product almost always elastic, not grainy. Consequently, it will be possible to save time by bypassing the stage of rubbing it through a sieve. In addition, it will not set the batch. Another advantage is the reduction in calorie content of baked goods.
4. Any curd products, including these, will be delicious with different fillings. Only they are added in limited quantities: approximately one chopped dried apricot (date, prune) for two muffins. From fresh berries, choose those that, when heated, almost do not release juice. Raspberries, mulberries, strawberries are a bad option. Small boneless grapes, slightly unripe blackcurrants, blueberries - good.
