    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

Notes

  • Chocolate Chips - I recommend
  • Hu Kitchen's no sugar added chocolate chips
  • Hu Kitchen's no sugar added chocolate chips
  • or
  • Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips
  • Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips
  • . These options will keep the muffins lower in sugar!
  • 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!
