You can make these moist and fluffy Blueberry Protein Muffins using Greek yogurt for a high-protein, satisfying breakfast or snack. This recipe is simple and perfect for meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or whole milk recommended for moisture)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For the best texture, use a quality vanilla protein powder. Whey or a whey/casein blend works well.
  • If you want an extra boost of flavor, add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
  • Store these **High Protein Muffins** in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week for easy **Meal Prep Protein Muffins**.
