Making these curd muffins is not difficult at all. The main ingredient is cottage cheese, and the usual high-calorie flour is replaced with oatmeal, which makes baked goods much healthier and less high-calorie. But in order for the muffins to turn out delicious, first of all, you need to purchase fresh chicken eggs and a high-quality fermented milk product, like cottage cheese. It should be fatty, not dietary and low-fat. You can use sweet baby cheeses, but in this case, you will have to adjust the amount of sugar so that the delicacy does not turn out to be too cloying. It is also important to remove all products from the refrigerator in advance before cooking so that they acquire the same room temperature - then it will be easier to achieve a homogeneous dough structure.
The muffins can be served immediately after cooking, although they keep great, staying fresh, fluffy and flavorful for a long time. Therefore, they can be cooked in large quantities for several days in advance. You can add raisins, dried apricots, crushed nuts and other fruit additives to diversify the culinary masterpiece, making the cupcakes more savory. These ingredients will give the curd baked goods an indescribable taste! In addition, to ennoble the taste of the dessert, you can add a little brandy or cognac. Alcohol will evaporate during baking, so this dessert can be eaten by children.
If you use metal tins for baking, then moisten them with water and coat with vegetable oil. You don't have to do anything with silicone molds and paper inserts.

Making curd muffins
1. Place oatmeal, preferably instant, in a mixing bowl. Add sugar and salt to them.
2. Add cottage cheese, softened butter and beat in an egg. If you have a little extra time, I recommend mincing the cottage cheese or rubbing it through a sieve. Then the texture of the cupcakes will be much softer.
3. Stir the food well until a homogeneous smooth paste is formed.
4. Prepare the molds and fill them with 2/3 of the dough. the dough will rise slightly during baking. If you have silicone molds, then you can do nothing with them, the cupcakes will not stick to them.
