Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a baking bowl, combine the first four ingredients.
  • One by one add in the wet ingredients and mix really well.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Let sit for 2-3 minutes for the ingredients to absorb.
  • Use a trigger ice cream scoop to portion the batter into muffin cups.
  • Bake for 34 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool fully in the pan.

Notes

  • The muffins taste best fresh or at room temperature. When stored in the fridge, let them sit at room temp before eating.
  • The batter will be thick. You need to scoop it into the muffin tins (it won't pour). This is normal!
  • Opt for silicone muffin cups if possible. The paper muffin cups won't peel off as easy.
  • Any non-dairy yogurt should work. I’ve used both almond yogurt as well as coconut yogurt. Opt for unflavored. However, I’m not sure how dairy-free Greek yogurt would work as it’s much thicker.
    Though you can’t substitute whey protein for vegan protein, you should be able to swap out flavors. Peanut butter chocolate chip protein muffins would be delicious too!
  • Grab all the ingredients from my Pantry Staples
  • These protein powder muffins are best stored in the fridge in an airtight container. Like this, they'll last 5-7 days.
