No-Mess Muffins: To reduce cleanup when you make muffins, spoon the batter into a zip-top bag, snip off a corner and fill the muffin tins.

Directions
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line 24 mini muffin cups with paper liners. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the cottage cheese, oil and egg in a small bowl until blended.
- Pour the cottage cheese mixture into the flour mixture and stir until moistened. Spoon half of the batter into the muffin cups. Sprinkle with your choice of assorted add-ins (using 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per muffin).
- Top with remaining batter; sprinkle with sparkling sugar. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes; remove from pan. Additions: fresh blueberries and grated lemon peel, diced apples and pecans, dried cranberries and flaked coconut, mini chocolate chips, or poppy seeds.
