  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 scoop protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (or applesauce for dairy-free)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for vegan option)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. Combine the rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, and cinnamon in a large bowl and mix well.
  3. Whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in another bowl until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, combining gently until just mixed.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Serve warm with a drizzle of honey or a pat of vegan butter.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with mix-ins like nuts or chocolate chips, and make sure to let the batter sit for a few minutes before baking for optimal texture.
