Protein Muffins are soft, fluffy, and packed with protein from ingredients like Greek yogurt, eggs, and protein powder. Perfect for breakfast, snacking, or post-workout fuel.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 1 cup oat flour or rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup almond flour or whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or mashed banana
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips, berries, or chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, Greek yogurt (or banana), honey, milk, and vanilla extract.
  3. In another bowl, mix protein powder, oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
  5. Fold in optional mix-ins like chocolate chips or berries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among 10–12 muffin cups.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Cool for 5–10 minutes before removing from the tin.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix to keep muffins light and moist.
  • Use ripe bananas if replacing yogurt for natural sweetness.
  • Store in fridge or freezer for longer freshness.
  • Adjust liquid slightly if using a dry plant-based protein powder.
