Vegan Banana Protein Muffins


This is one of my all-time favorite recipes, and let me tell you why. I often receive donations of protein powder from patients and friends who, for various reasons, don't want it for themselves.


Once, I received a 2.5kg pack of banana-flavoured protein powder that was heavily sweetened and had a very artificial banana flavour. I was unsure what to do with it, but then I had an idea: why not make protein muffins? This way, I could have a delicious and protein-packed snack for my mid-afternoon cravings while also finding a good use for the protein powder.


From the very first time I tried it, these muffins turned out to be an amazing option for a warm, protein-filled treat. Join me as I show you just how easy it is to prepare them.


Ingredients:

  • 4 ripe bananas (365g)

  • 100 ml non-dairy milk

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 100g oat flour (blended to preserve nutrients)

  • 30g chickpea flour

  • 70g banana protein powder (you can swap the flavour of your protein and it will still be tasty)

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.

  2. In a blender, combine the bananas, non-dairy milk, and cinnamon until well combined.

  3. In a large bowl, mix together the oat flour, chickpea flour, protein powder, baking powder, and baking soda.

  4. Add the banana mixture to the dry ingredients in the bowl and mix with a spatula until a thick batter forms.

  5. Add the options ingredientes such as chocolate chips, cocoa nibs, nuts, berries.

  6. Divide the batter into muffin tins.

  7. Bake for 10 minutes at 200°C, then reduce the temperature to 180°C and bake for another 20 minutes or until cooked inside.

  8. Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool before eating.

Enjoy these protein-packed banana muffins as a delicious and nutritious snack!
