Boost your protein intake with these simple, moist, and delicious high-protein muffins. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra moisture, you can add 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce to the wet ingredients.
  • Feel free to add mix-ins like berries, chocolate chips, or nuts to the batter.
  • Ensure your protein powder is unflavored or a flavor that complements your muffin.
