Servings: 16 muffins
Calories: 115kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups Bob's Gluten Free 1:1 Baking Flour 296g
- 1/2 cup vanilla whey protein powder 48g
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 cup unsweetened apple sauce 267g
- 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt 113g
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup 84g
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, silicone liners or muffin wrappers.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, Greek yogurt, honey, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough muffins.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 16 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. The muffins should be slightly golden on top and spring back when lightly touched.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store the protein blueberry muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
