Ingredients
Method
- Preheat and Prep. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Place a baking dish filled with 1 inch of hot water on the bottom oven rack. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin thoroughly.
- Blend the Base. In a blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. Blend until completely smooth and pale yellow.
- Mix and Fill. Stir in the chopped spinach, red pepper, and shredded cheese by hand. Distribute the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
- Bake Gently. Place the tin on the middle rack (above the water pan). Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the centers are just set and don't jiggle.
- Rest and Serve. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Use a silicone spatula to gently pop them out.[Simulated: 15,420 home cooks made this!] [I Made It ✓]
