Double Chocolate Protein Muffins

These chocolate protein muffins are fudgy and oh so delicious. There's no added sugar (sweetened only with bananas) and each muffin has 8 grams of protein!

Cuisine: American
Keyword: chocolate protein muffins
Servings: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup rolled old-fashioned oats
  • 1 ½ (160 grams) ripe bananas
  • 1 cup whey chocolate protein powder I used Clean Simple Eats Brownie Batter
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk plus more as needed to blend
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate chips + more for topping*
  • paper or silicone muffin liners

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Add oats, banana, chocolate protein powder, almond milk and eggs into a high powdered blender and blend until smooth. Add baking soda and baking powder. Blend until combined.
  • Use a spatula to stir in chocolate chips and then transfer muffin mix into prepared muffin tin lined with paper or silicone liners. Muffin cavities should be filled about 3/4 of the way up and you should be able to fill 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
  • Bake muffins for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

  • Protein powder - I highly recommend using a whey protein powder for this recipe. I've tried it with plant-based protein powders and they tend to soak up too much of the liquid so the batter is way too thick. 
  • Chocolate Chips - I recommend Hu Kitchen's no sugar added chocolate chips or Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips. These options will keep the muffins lower in sugar!
