Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or full fat for best moisture)
- 1/2 cup mashed ripe banana
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, mashed banana, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until just combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For the best flavor and moist protein muffins, use Greek yogurt instead of milk. This adds moisture and protein.
- These are excellent for meal prep. Store cooled muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 3 months.
- If you prefer a different flavor, substitute the blueberries with 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips for Chocolate Protein Muffins.
