Karly's Protein Muffins.


Yes, you read that correctly ... muffins.  Yes, I eat them, but they aren't your ordinary out of the package muffins.  They are simple and tasty and excellent for a meal or snack throughout the day, or pre-workout.

This is my version of muffins:

Preheat oven to 350.  Cooking time: 15-20 minutes.
2-3 cups of organic old fashioned oats
5 eggs
1 scoop of protein (I used chocolate this time)
Cinnamon to taste

Mix all the ingredients together. You should have a nice batter consistency.  Not to runny and not to thick.  You can use a bit of water to adjust the thickness if needed.

Oil the muffin pan with organic unrefined coconut oil.

Scoop the mixture into the muffin cups - I fill them to the edge.

Bake and check of the muffins at 15 minutes.  If they are still gooey, cook a little longer, but not too long or they will be tough to eat.

I have also switched up the batter to add a mashed banana with some sesame seed butter for an addition of healthy fats, or cut up fruit (raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries) and added them to the batter. 

Feel free to experiment but remember, keep it simple.  The original batter may seem bland to some so I like to encourage using fruit to liven up the taste - no sugar, stevia, or sweeteners needed.  Hope you enjoy!!
