Chocolate Protein Muffins (dairy & gluten-free)
Report
Easy to make and easier to eat! These protein muffins are a snack and dessert rolled into one. Though they don't use cocoa powder, they still come out an indulgent, rich, chocolate flavor.

Ingredients
- ¼ cup regular oats gluten-free
- 1 egg
- ½ cup vegan chocolate protein powder
- 1 tbs vegan chocolate protein powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup dairy-free yogurt
- 3 tbs almond milk

- Mix together the egg, yogurt, syrup, sunbutter, and oil.
- Add in oats, protein, and baking powder. Mix well.
- Stir in chocolate chips and milk.
- Portion into 9 muffins tins taking care not to fill them to the top.
- Bake in the oven for 30-31 minutes.
- Turn off the oven and let them sit in there for another fifteen minutes to set (they won't seem done).

- Once the muffins are cooled, drizzle them with the chocolate sauce.

Notes
- The chocolate drizzled over top is optional and therefore not included in the nutritional breakdown.
- The chocolate protein muffin batter seems thick when you’re portioning it out. That’s normal! Use a silicone spatula to help you shape the muffins into muffin cups.
- You can use either a silicone muffin tin or individual silicone muffin molds placed in a muffin pan. Regardless, try not to use traditional paper muffin liners as they will stick.
- Regular dairy yogurt should work, I’m not sure how Greek Yogurt will work texture-wise as it may be too thick.
- The muffins use a fermented protein powder, this means that it absorbs liquid. Using a regular protein powder may not give the same delicious texture or thickness.
