Cottage cheese muffins with cranberries

This recipe has a double benefit - cranberries and cottage cheese. Cottage cheese muffins are prepared with beaten egg whites and are so tender and airy that it is simply impossible to resist!

Ingredients

• Curd - 150 g
• Fresh cranberries - 100 g
• Egg whites - 4 pcs.
• Sugar - 100 g
• Flour - 130 g (1 cup with a volume of 200 ml)
• Salt - 1 pinch
• Vanilla sugar - 1 teaspoon
• Powdered sugar (for decoration) - 1 tbsp. the spoon

Directions

1. Prepare all the ingredients for the cupcakes. Take any cottage cheese, I used store-bought 5% fat. Cranberries are best used fresh, so they will be healthier in the finished baking. Rinse the cranberries and pat dry on a towel.
2. Carefully separate the whites from the yolks. Try not to get the yolk into the protein, otherwise the protein mass will not whip into a strong foam.
3. (Yolks are not needed in this recipe.)
4. Whip the egg whites with a whisk or a mixer until stiff, 3-4 minutes.
5. Add salt, sugar and vanilla sugar. Whisk again for 1 minute until sugar dissolves.
6. Turn on the oven to preheat to 220 degrees.
7. Rub the cottage cheese through a fine sieve. Then add to the bowl with the egg mixture.
8. Enter the flour, gently mixing the dough with a whisk.
9. At the end of the preparation of the dough, add cranberries and mix gently.
10. Fill two-thirds of the silicone cupcake liners with batter. I got 10 pieces. Silicone can not be lubricated with oil.
11. Send the molds to the oven preheated to 220 degrees. Bake cranberry cupcakes for 20 minutes.
12. Carefully remove the baked muffins from the molds and cool on a wire rack or wooden board.
13. Cooled cupcakes can be decorated with powdered sugar, icing or melted chocolate.
14. Cranberry Cheesecakes are ready to serve.
15. Airy, light, not as high-calorie as ordinary muffins, with a bright berry explosion inside and a thin crust on the outside, you will cook these cranberry muffins more than once or twice! With a cup of aromatic coffee, this is the perfect dessert.
16. Very tasty, very easy and very fast!
