Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line muffin tins with parchment paper cups or silicon cups. As an alternative you can grease the muffin tins with cooking spray or oil.
Add to a blender eggs, cottage cheese, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth, then mix in chopped spinach. Stir with a spoon or fork, do not blend after adding the spinach.
Fill ¾ of each muffin mold. Sprinkle with more diced chopped spinach on top, if you desire.
Bake in hot oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is no more jiggly. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
