We’re making a healthier version of the viral Olympic Village chocolate muffin that everyone is raving about my recipe is gluten-free with oat flour and hon protein with cottage cheese almond flour and eggs they’re naturally sweetened with applesauce maple syrup and cane sugar so any athlete can feel great eating them hello my name is Nicole.
Bonia and if you love healthier recipes made with all natural ingredients then you are in the right place to make these delicious muffins extra moist and to add some protein we’re going to start with some cottage cheese now you could use large curd or small curd lowfat non-fat whatever your preference and you’re welcome to jot down these ingredients as.
We go along or you can click on the link that’s in the video description below and that will take you to the full recipe on my website now before we add the cottage cheese to our muffin batter we want to blend it smooth first cuz then we’ll no longer have that curdle cottage cheese texture so you could use an upright blender or a food processor.
Or I’m going to use the chopper cup that comes with my immersion blender now you could also use Greek yogurt or sour cream in place of the cottage cheese and they would not have to blend it up first so I’m going to start with 1/3 a cup of cottage cheese and then to help it blend down just a little bit easier I’ll go ahead and add our next ingredient which.
Is 1/3 a cup of unsweetened applesauce and then I’ll simply put on the lid and blend it till smooth so now we no longer have that curo cottage cheese texture and then I’ll go ahead and just add this to my mixing bowl next we’re going to add 2/3 of a cup of some cane sugar but you could use any granulated sugar that you.
Like now’ll add A4 a cup of some light olive oil you could also use avocado oil next we’ll add one tspoon of some apple cider vinegar and this will add flavor and help them bake lighter and 2 tpoon of some vanilla extract and three eggs now we’ll go ahead and just mix this together until well combined now we can add our dry ingredients which includes 1.
And 1/2 cups of oat flour now you could buy the store-bought flour or you could just take some quick oats or oldfashioned oats put them into your food processor or your blender and just blend it until you have a very fine flour and to add some additional protein delicious flavor and some healthy fats we’re adding 1 cup of almond flour and.
If you’d like to see some additional combinations of flowers that you can use go ahead and click on the recipe in the video description next we’re going to add 13 a cup of some cocoa powder and I like Dutch process and then we’re going to add 2 taspo of baking powder 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and half a teaspoon of salt let’s dump those right on top.
And then we’ll just whisk these together until they’re well combined and then we have this thick gorgeous and very chocolaty smelling muffin batter next we want to add half a cup of our chocolate chunks and you could use any type of chocolate chips that meet your dietary preference so I’m going go ahead and add half a cup I am going to hold back about.
2 tspoons of it cuz I want to add these chips to the top of the muffins and then I’ll just fold these in with my spatula now to bake the muffins you can use any liners that you like I’m using a variety of these paper liners that I think are really fun but you will want to lightly spray them first just to make sure the muffins don’t stick so I’m just spraying.
Them lightly with a little bit of some coconut oil and then I’ll just use my third cup batter scoop to go ahead and drop the batter right into each of the cups you want to fill them just over the top of the muffin liner now the Almond muffin cups are filled I’m going to go ahead and just sprinkles a few extra chocolate chunks on top of the muffins.
Now because we’re going to be poking a hole in the center top of the muffin for that chocolate sauce I’m not going to put chocolate chip right in the center so I’ll just push in a few around the sides well these look gorgeous and they are ready to go into the oven now to get that really gorgeous High Dome on the muffins we want to give them a heat.
Boost first so we’re going to put them into a 425° oven and set the timer for 5 minutes then after that 5 minutes we’re going to leave the muffins in the oven we’re going to turn down the temperature to 350 and then we’re going to let these bake for about an additional 14 to 16 minutes or until a toothpick comes out.
Clean well here are our muffins out of the oven and they look gorgeous I love that they have this High Dome on top which makes them look like they came right out of a bakery now of course you can enjoy your muffins as is or we can add our chocolate sauce that we’re going to pipe into the center of each muffin now we could make this with melted.
Chocolate chips and some cream but I’m going to show you how to make a really easy sauce with just some cottage cheese so we’re going to add A4 a cup of our cottage cheese to a blender cuz we want to smooth out that curdle texture and then we’ll add a four a cup of pure maple syrup but you could also use honey for a little bit deeper flavor.
And 2 tbspoon of cocoa powder half a teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of salt for flavor and then we’ll put on the lid and blend it until smooth well that looks perfect and now is an excellent time for a little pinky test that is so good now to get the sauce into the middle of the muffin I’m going to go ahead and use a slender.
Spoon handle so we’ll just poke it down in kind of both directions and then I can kind of swirl it around then I can just pour in the sauce until it fills up the hole M that it looks so good now you can enjoy these while the muffins and the sauce are warm which gives you a little bit more of that lava cake effect or you can put these into the fridge and.
Allow it to cool and then that sauce is going to thicken up a little bit more so I’m ready to enjoy one right away go ahead and open that up oh and that delicious sauce just spreads all over that muffin crumb and I have chocolate all over my fingers and I do not care M that tastes fine that is seriously so.
Good I can see why these muffins were such a hit with all the athletes I love the depth of flavor that you get with these from the oat flour and the almond flour and they have just the right amount of sweetness without it being overpowering and I love that it’s made with clean natural ingredients which means I’m going to feel just as good.
