Yield 9 muffins

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup yogurt (use nondairy for vegan)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup egg whites or additional water
  • 3 tbsp oil or nut butter or additional water
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 tsp white or cider vinegar
  • 2/3 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup protein powder
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar of choice or xylitol
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • optional chocolate chips

Instructions

  • To make protein muffins, preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease or line a muffin tin. Whisk the wet ingredients in a bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients just until evenly mixed. Pour into the muffin tins. Bake 19 minutes. The protein muffins should look domed when you take them out. Allow to cool before removing from the tins. If you let them sit loosely covered overnight, the liners peel off easily by the next day.
    *If you prefer to make mini muffins like the ones in the photos and recipe video, decrease baking time to 12 minutes. It will yield 22 mini muffins.
