Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Cut the broccoli into very small pieces. If the Pancetta isn’t already in cubes, cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  • In a food processor, blend the cottage cheese, eggs, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat and fry the Pancetta until crispy. Set aside.
  • Grease a muffin tin or use silicone liners. In each muffin cup, layer the Pancetta and diced broccoli.
  • Pour the cottage cheese and egg mixture over the Pancetta and broccoli.
  • Top each muffin with shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and set.

Notes

  • If you’re not a fan of Pancetta, consider using cooked bacon, turkey bacon, or even diced chicken sausage for a different flavor profile.
  • While full-fat cottage cheese provides richness, you can use low-fat or fat-free if you prefer. Keep in mind that the texture and flavor may vary slightly.
