There&#39;s no better way to celebrate the arrival of fall than with a batch of freshly baked Pumpkin Protein Muffins. They&#39;re easy &amp; healthy!

Pumpkin Protein Muffins

wheat pastry flour

protein powder (plain, vanilla, or chocolate)

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp ground ginger

nutmeg

¼ tsp ground cloves

coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

eggs

avocado oil

plain Greek yogurt

tsp vanilla extract

chocolate chips (optional) (plus more for topping (optional))

Preheat your oven to 375° and line a 12-count muffin tin.

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, protein powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and baking soda. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, whisk together pumpkin, coconut sugar, eggs, oil, Greek yogurt, and vanilla. Whisk until no clumps of yogurt remain.

Add the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips (if using).

Divide the batter evenly between 12 muffins. Sprinkle a few mini chocolate chips on each muffin, then bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool, then serve!

These came out delicious and moist and tender. I did make a few changes out of necessity and lack of other ingredients, but nothing major. I substituted the whole wheat pastry flour for 1/4 cup of regular whole wheat flour and the rest cake flour. Just needed to use those up for my pantry. Then I used Pumpkin Pie spice, about 2 teaspoons or so, in place of the individual spices. Even with my substitutions they came out good. I'm sure they would be even more amazing with the intended ingredients. Thanks for the recipe!

I have a family full of food allergies. This recipe was an awesome base! I made a few changes so that my entire family could enjoy it. These changes made the recipe Soy, Wheat and Dairy Free. 

Substitutions: 
- Dairy free plain yogurt (same amount)
- Omitted the protein powder and added an extra 1/2 cup of flour
- King Arthur Measure for Measure GF flour. 

I did bake them about 12 min longer than the recipe called for- which is pretty typical for me when subbing gf flour. 

Allergies are tough- but hopefully this helps another family find another allergy recipe win!

I followed the recipe exactly, and this came out great! I'm probably going to double the spices next time, but it was really easy to make.

I found this recipe on Pinterest last night when I was looking for healthy muffins to make for my toddler son to have before school in the morning. Safe to say, we BOTH love them! The flavor and texture are awesome. I love that they're made with real ingredients -- not tons of fake sugars. They are so light and fluffy, too!  Definitely will be making again and would love to try other flavors like blueberry or banana protein muffins, etc.!

I did sub out cane sugar for the sugar and used an oat flour blend but they still came out delicious. I would recommend adding more chocolate chips if you want to taste them but the issue might be that I'm using mini semi sweet cc.

Guys I'm so proud of myself! I don't do a lot of baking, but these are really good! Perfect for fall, pretty easy, and totally scrummy

Also peep my parchment paper liners bc I didn't buy cupcake liners✌️

These are so good I have now made them 4 times in about 3 weeks, using two different brands of protein and it comes out delicious each time! (I'm also leaving out the chocolate chips because I think they're delicious on their own) My 14 month old son loves them, in my most recent batch I added 2 shredded carrots to sneak a little more veggies in, these will be a staple on our home!

These were so good.  I accidentally left the avocado oil out so I’ll be making them again according to the directions but they were good warm so hopefully just as good the next day.  How do you suggest storing them?

These protein muffins are amazing! So moist!!! I've made them several times and brought them to different functions. Friends who were watching what they eat enjoyed them, knowing they were high protein and low everything else! Other friends who wanted a treat enjoyed then just as much! Especially the ones that had chocolate chips 😉 I used a pumpkin protein powder and went easy on the spices. Now I'd love a recipe for other protein powder flavors - chocolate? lemon??? Delish!

These turned out really good! I baked 30 minutes because of high altitude and they were perfect!

I love these as a healthier option! they are so tasty!

Delicious and nutritious is a tough combo to create, and these muffins do it. SO GOOD

Super tasty, they don’t taste healthy at all :)

My son is nearly impossible to trick into eating anything remotely healthy and my husband isn't big on pumpkin flavored things or breakfast.  So when both inhaled these, before I even made a version with chocolate chips thrown in, I knew it was yet another keeper.

So so good!!! I doubled this recipe and added a bag of milk chocolate guittard chocolate chips and they were AMAZING! My kids eat these for breakfast. I love the added protein powder!

These muffins are fantastic both in flavor and texture! I’m happy to have the added protein without compromising on taste! So very good,

Do not wait! These are amazing! Super fast, super easy. While I love an indulgent dessert I’m so glad Brooke occasionally  posts some hi protein treats to.

IMMEDIATELY made these muffins as soon as I saw them! They’re so good, Brooke! We don’t usually get “healthy” treats here- and I don’t believe in “healthy” treats 🤣(a treat should be a treat!)- BUT feeling guilt free and enjoying some more pumpkin this time of year is never a bad thing. I didn’t mind my kids coming home from school and enjoying them for snack. They were easy to make, they taste so good, and the texture is PERFECT.
