Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 scoop (approx. 30g) vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup milk (any kind)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, applesauce, milk, eggs, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra moisture, you can add 1/4 cup of mashed banana or berries to the batter.
  • If your protein powder is very dry, you may need to add an extra tablespoon or two of milk to achieve the right consistency.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to 3 months.
