Ingredients for Pumpkin Protein Muffins:

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Pumpkin puree (or sweet potato or banana)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter, cashew butter or a nut butter alternative)
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1-2 scoops of ES Fit Vanilla Whey Protein Powder 
  • 1 serving liquid stevia

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a mini muffin tin with mini muffin liners- For mini muffins, you'll need at least 15. Ensure each muffin tin in greased generously.
  • In a high speed blender or mixing bowl, combine all your ingredients and blend/mix until smooth.
  • Pour mixture into each muffin tin, filling until just full. As there is no baking powder needed, they generally won't rise.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a skewer/toothpick comes out just clean. Allow to cool in the muffin tin completely. For best results, refrigerate once cooled for several hours.
