- 1 cup rosemary thyme potatoes
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full fat or 2%)
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoons granulated garlic
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
Prepare rosemary thyme potatoes. See recipe in below notes. Preheat oven to 300°F. Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin or silicone muffin cups with nonstick spray.
Place eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, cornstarch, black pepper, and granulated garlic in a blender or processor. Blend until smooth and frothy, 30–60 seconds.
Divide potato mixture evenly among the cups. Pour egg mixture over the top, filling almost to the rim (~¼ cup each). Sprinkle with fresh chives. Place muffin pan on a baking sheet. Carefully pour water into the baking sheet until it comes halfway up the muffin cups.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until set. Do not overcook. Remove from oven and let cool. Run a knife around edges to release. Enjoy!
