Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, stir together the sifted coconut four, protein powder, and salt.
In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, honey, 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and butter extract with an electric hand mixer until well combined.
Stir in the flour mixture and then beat again until very smooth.
Pour the batter into the muffin tin (1 tablespoon per cupcake) and let it stand for 10 minutes before baking to allow the coconut flour to begin absorbing the liquid.
Bake until just set and a toothpick comes out clean, about 10 minutes. The cupcakes may feel a little on the softer side, but they firm up when cooling. It's very important to not overbake products with protein powder, or they can get quite spongy. Let cool.
To make the frosting, stir together protein powder, 1/3 cup Greek yogurt, and stevia. Spread or pipe onto the cupcakes and top with sprinkles.
