And this is one of my all-time favorite breakfast recipes for a make ahead <a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/category\/method\/weekend-food-prep\/\">Weekend Food Prep<\/a> breakfast!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When I first spotted the idea for cottage cheese muffins years ago, I loved the idea of a high-protein muffin with cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan, and almond meal, and just the tiniest bit of flour. And I discovered that the almond flour and tiny bit of white whole wheat flour gave these cottage cheese muffins a nice texture that was different than the <a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/egg-muffins-revisited-again\/\">Keto Egg Muffins<\/a> I&#8217;d been making for years. And the very small amount of flour didn&#8217;t add many carbs!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But if you don&#8217;t want flour (or need breakfast muffins that are gluten-free) see the ideas below to replace the flour. Since I first posted this recipe I&#8217;ve made these delicious breakfast muffins over and over, and these low-carb, high protein breakfast muffins have been a hit with everyone who tries them! I hope you&#8217;ll try this recipe!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>What ingredients do you need for this recipe?<\/h2>\n<p>(This is ONLY a list of ingredients for the recipe; please scroll down for complete printable recipe.
