Get Ready to Bake: Preheat your oven to a gentle 325°F (160°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with silicone or parchment liners.
Blend the Wet Goodness: In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and sweetener. Blend until the mixture is incredibly smooth, ensuring there are no lumps of cottage cheese visible.
Add the Dry Mix: Next, add the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt to the blender. Blend again until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the batter starts to thicken.
Lemon Power: Incorporate the fresh lemon zest and lemon juice into the batter and blend one last time until everything is perfectly combined. If your batter feels a bit too thick to pour easily, add an extra tablespoon of water or almond milk at a time until it reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
Poppyseed Perfection: Gently stir the poppyseeds into the batter by hand. This helps keep them intact and adds that delightful crunch.
Fill and Bake: Divide the batter evenly among your 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each one almost to the very top.
Golden Brown: Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the muffin tops are nicely puffed and feel firm when lightly touched. Avoid overbaking to keep them moist!
Cool and Enjoy: Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes. Then, carefully remove them from their liners to prevent sticking. They're wonderful warm or chilled and perfect for a healthy grab-and-go snack!
