protein muffins

These simple blender muffins pack a serious nutrition punch and are dairy-free, with a nut-free option. I prefer the flavor of these once they are fully cooled and chilled in the fridge.

Chocolate Protein Muffins (With Veggies!)

peanut butter

banana

zucchini (or summer squash)

kale (or spinach; 1 cup very loosely packed)

3 eggs

honey (or maple syrup)

teaspoon vanilla extract

cup cocoa powder

tablespoons ground flaxseeds

teaspoon baking powder

chocolate chips, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a mini or standard size muffin tin with nonstick spray.

Place all ingredients into a blender. Blend until very smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender and/or using the stick that came with it to move the ingredients around if needed.

Fill muffin cups about 1/2 full using about 1/4 cup batter in each. Top with chocolate chips, if using.

For regular muffins: Bake 22-24 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out cleanly.

For mini muffins (or a donut pan): Bake 14-16 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out cleanly.

Let cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, run a knife around the edges, and carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool.

I have been looking for an easy breakfast alternative for my picky little sweet tooth. I might have used too much kale because they had a green tint. I was worried she wouldn't touch them, but she devoured them! 

I will say that I don't recommend doubling the recipe. They were super hard to blend well in my vitamin because the batter is so thick, but they still came out great!

Thanks for this!

I used sweet potato and a little bit of applesauce and they turned out great! They have a slight"health-food" aftertaste from the veggies ? but the cocoa and chocolate chips make it feel like a treat! My 2 year old gobbled hers right up! ? Thank you for the recipe and substitution suggestion!

I made these this morning and can confirm they are delicious, especially straight from the oven. Notes: I had success using food processor, but processed my banana and veggies (spinach and 1 small zucchini) first. Sunbutter tasted great. I added allergen free mini chocolate chips. I'm currently dairy free but will def continue making these when that's no longer an issue (even though we have no dietary restrictions).

My 20 month old is so picky with veggies lately! She only drinks them out of the lower sugar pouches. I LOVE that these are delicious and healthy for her!  My husband, out toddler and I all ate these out of the oven when they were finally cool enough! I made them into mini muffins, they are so great to freeze and have a stash ready for snack time! Thank you for another delicious muffin go to!

These are absolutely to die for!  I love them, my husband loves them, and most importantly my kids love them. I like that they are super easy to make and packed with nutrition.

Thank you so much for this recipe!  My 16 month old twins love them!  I halved the amount of maple syrup but I feel like I could have left it completely out and they would be just as good!

Hi!
Do you use regular peanut butter in this or "drippy" all natural? Can't wait to try it, either way!

So good! My toddler cried after they were all gone ?

WOW this recipe is amazing, I cannot get over the amount of veggies/fruit/protein in them and they are delicious! My kids and nieces and nephews scarfed them up with no clue as to all the wonderful veggies etc they were consuming! LOVE These!

I made this recipe and used flour as a substitute for ground flax. Worked perfectly and my hard to please toddler has loved these. I have never left a comment on any page, but this was such a success for our household and I wanted to say thank you for sharing your recipe ?

I left out the flax seed because I didn’t have any on hand. I am now reading the comments that I should have added a substitute. The texture seemed okay, but the flavor was just blah, and neither of my kids would eat them.

As a baker, i had doubts about this recipe and unfortunately i was right. These did not turn out well and even the chocolate chips couldn't hide the very vegetal taste. No matter how long i baked them, and the fact that a toothpick came out clean, the middle was always dense and a little too wet. I saw it noted somewhere in the recipe that because there is no flour, these couldn't be dense, but that's incorrect. Without flour (or more cocoa powder) to absorb some of the liquid from the other ingredients, these will absolutely be dense. That's why dishes such as flourless chocolate cake are super dense. I'm bummed i wasted good ingredients on this.

After reading the other reviews, I thought these might  be more like brownies than muffins. I put the batter in a greased square cake pan, and baked at  350 for just over 30 minutes. I used wow butter instead of pb and sprinkled chocolate chips on the top.  I found my one banana wasn’t quite a cup so made up the difference with applesauce. They were a hit with the kids!

As an adult these are not my cup of tea, but my extremely picky toddler LOVES them and that alone makes them worthwhile.  Thank you!!!!

Perfect everytime! These are cooked nearly every week they are so delish! Good for the whole family not just the littles.

Very delicious! Success with toddlers and hubby. Live it that we use one utensil only! Thanks, Amy!!

Turned out so yummy! My three kiddos loved them! Thank you for another wonderful recipe for my picky veggie eaters 😂

These were surprisingly good.  Texture is spongy but great. I will like to taste them when they are out of the fridge or defrosted - I threw them all in the freezer for my toddler. Will definitely make again.

These flourless Chocolate Protein Muffins pack in the nutrients and can be quickly mixed up in a blender. 

Chocolate Protein Muffins (with Veggies!)

These banana protein muffins are EASY to make, fluffy, and so tasty. They are the perfect protein packed breakfast or snack for busy mornings with a whopping 8 grams of protein per muffin! Paleo gluten free, and kid approved.

Banana Protein Muffins

small-medium bananas (about 1 cup mashed)

eggs

honey, optional

vanilla

almond flour

baking soda

baking powder

salt

cinnamon

protein powder (1/2 cup packed)

natural almond butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease muffin tin with oil or insert muffin liners into 12-cup muffin pan. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, mash bananas until there are no large chunks left. Then add eggs, honey, and vanilla, and whisk until well combined.

Stir in the almond flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and protein powder using a baking spatula. Be careful not to over mix the batter.

Add the almond butter and lightly fold it into the batter with a baking spatula.

Divide the batter into the 12 muffin cups, filling 3/4 of the way. *If you aren&#8217;t using baking cups or liners, spray the muffin pan with coconut oil or ghee before adding the batter. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove the muffins from the oven and let cool for 20 minutes.

These are so yummy it’s hard to eat only one. I used collagen peptides which I’m not sure is the same or different than collagen protein but they came out perfect. Very excited to try different combinations the next time I make them. Thank you so much for the recipe 😊

Delicious! I used date nectar instead of honey, Innosupps vegan french toast protein, and added some sugar free dark chocolate chips and pecans. Thanks for the recipe!

definitely needs some extra sweetener but overall pretty decent! i also added a tbsp of chia seeds for some extra nutrition!!

This recipe is amazing!  Thank u for sharing with us😊

maple syrup

Add baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, oats, milk, apple cider vinegar, and protein powder and stir until well combined. Let batter sit for 2-3 minutes to allow baking soda and vinegar to react. The batter will look bubbly, that’s okay!

Add whole wheat pastry flour and mix until just combined, try not to overmix.

Fold in blueberries, then divide evenly between 12 lined muffin cups. Fill each muffin cup completely full. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup oats evenly onto the 12 muffins.

dark chocolate chips, sugar-free

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a muffin pan with 12 silicone or parchment paper liners.

Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups and bake 18 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins have risen and are just firm to the touch on top.

Remove and let cool in the pan.

This is my Favourite Recipe of yours. These muffins are decadent, delicious and easy!

Made these last night for a sisters breakfast today. My husband ate two then, declaring them the best cupcake he has ever had. I told him it was muffin not a cupcake.  He awoke this morning telling me he dreamed of the “cupcake” and was ready for breakfast. I guess these will be made frequently in our household. Thank you again for another wonderful recipe.
Ruth

I've made these with peanut butter multiple times and they were great. I've also made these into cookies by scooping them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking. 350 for 10-13 minutes and they were AMAZING!!!

Carolyn,
This is my favorite protein muffin recipe. I changed this up a little last week to make chocolate orange muffins. I added 2 T orange juice, some zest and 5 T homemade almond milk. Delicious!
I would love to merge the cottage cheese muffin recipe with this chocolate protein muffin for a delicious moist muffin. Any chance you might be experimenting with that?

These are delicious. Wanted to try something high protein for breakfast. I added about 1/2 tsp coffee extract to enhance flavor. Hard to stop at one

I was skeptical, but these are damn good. I had unflavored collagen powder but increased the cocoa powder + liquid as mentioned in other comments (I used a splash of cold brew to deepen the chocolate flavor). You can reheat them in the toaster oven and they get this perfect crunch on top. The amount of protein per muffin is also truly impressive.

Thanks Carolyn! These slap.

I my goodness!  These muffins are to die for!  I love that any type of nut or seed butter can be used and that they have collagen in them.  I used Tahini in mine.  These will be the perfect after dinner snack or breakfast.  They are so decadent!

Made these with crunchy almond butter. seriously AMAZING...fudgy, delicious!!! they are the best chocolate muffins I've ever had. I love that they are grain and dairy free (if you use df chocolate chips like Trader Joe's)

These are so good!  I love that they pack a lot of protein in a sweet treat.  My high school son who's active in sports and weight lifting is always looking to add protein and these have been a hit.  I did use peanut butter as my nut butter of choice which made the batter thick but I just added extra water...super easy and did not impact taste at all!

I’ve made every keto muffin known to humankind but very few have really satisfied my palate until these protein chocolate muffins came into my life. These are it! Look no further! They have a beautiful, fluffy texture, the flavor is spot on (I add a few drops of stevia) and they hit the spot! Thank you so much for this fantastic recipe!

I made these for the first time this morning.  They are delicious.  I was a little concerned because I used the new formula Swerve brown but I have no issues.
Thanks for another awesome recipe.
