Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted 1 stick
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup pumpkin puree 240g
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp honey 21g
- 2 tbsp maple syrup 30ml
- 1 cup Bob's Red Mill Oat Flour 120g
- 1 cup Bob's Red Mill Whey Protein Powder* 76g
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup Lily's Chocolate Chips * dark or milk chocolate 80g
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Heavily spray a muffin pan with nonstick spray or alternatively use muffin liners (paper or rubber oven safe).
- In a mixing bowl, add melted butter, eggs, pumpkin puree, honey, syrup and vanilla. Stir to combine.To melt the butter in the microwave, place in a microwave safe dish and melt slowly in 7 second intervals. If you do this too quick it will pop and explode in the microwave. Trust me.
- Then, add in oat flour, whey protein, baking powder, salt and pumpkin pie seasoning. Stir to combine.
- Fold in the chocolate chips. Scoop batter into muffin cavities. Fill each one almost to the top.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into muffins comes out clean. Finally, remove from oven. Allow muffins to cool for 10 minutes in pan before carefully removing from the pan to cool on a rack.
Notes
- Make your own oat flour by gridding oats with a high speed blender.
- This recipe has only been tested with Bob's Red Mill Whey Protein. If you don't want to add protein powder add the same amount of extra oat flour.
- You can use coconut oil in place of butter.
