Cottage Cheese Muffins - ph 1-2
This is a recipe taken from The Carbohydrate Addict's
Lifespan Program by Dr. Richard and Dr. Rachael Heller.
Even with the soy flour -- I would consider it appropriate
for phase I. If it gives you cravings or weight gain-- hold
off until phase II.
serves 1 or 2
1 teaspoon sweet butter (or low-fat substitute) I use cooking spray.
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 cup cottage cheese
1 tablespoon soy flour
1/2 packet sugar substiute (I omit and find the flavor is great without it.)
splash of vanilla for flavor or any kind of extract that you like
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Coat muffin cups with room temp. butter (or spray w/ cooking spray).
3. Separate the egg whites and yolks. Beat the egg whites until frothy. Add cream of tartar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
4. In a med. sized bowl, combine the egg yolks, cottage cheese, soy flour and sugar substitute (if desired). Mix well. Add the mixture to the beaten egg whites and fold gently.
5. Fill each muffin cup 2/3 full with batter.
6. Bake the muffins until they are golden-brown and they spring back when touched with the back of a fork (25-30 min).
Remove and serve.
