Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup vegan protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, let sit for 5 minutes)
1 cup non-dairy milk (almond, soy, or oat)
1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: 1/2 cup berries or chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flax egg, non-dairy milk, oil, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in any optional additions like berries or chocolate chips.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a sweeter muffin, you can increase the sugar slightly or add a tablespoon of maple syrup to the wet ingredients.
Experiment with different flavors of vegan protein powder to change up the taste.
Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
