Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup protein powder
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the protein powder, oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.
  3. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the muffins tender.
  5. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full for optimum rising.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For extra swirl effect, you can sprinkle additional cinnamon and a little maple syrup on top before baking.
  • Use gluten-free oat flour if gluten sensitivity is a concern.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to your taste.
