These muffins are a great example of balanced baking:
• Protein from cottage cheese and eggs
• Fibre from oats
• Healthy fats from nuts
That combination helps with satiety and steadier blood sugars, making them suitable for weight loss, insulin resistance, and diabetes, while still being family-friendly.
No protein powder needed — just real, everyday ingredients.
