Instructions

Preheat the Oven – Ready your oven by preheating it to 375°F (190°C). You should lightly grease your muffin tin and add paper liners.

Dry Ingredients – Combine the ingredients such as flour, baking powder, baking soda, protein powder, and salt in a large bowl and whisk them together.

Wet Ingredients – In a separate standard-sized bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, almond or regular milk, and melted coconut oil or butter. Mix until smooth.

Combine – Slowly add the wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until the mix properly and avoid overmixing. Otherwise, the Blueberry Protein Muffins will have lumps in the end.

Add Blueberries – Gently fold in them, ensuring they're evenly distributed in the batter.

Fill Muffin Tins – Spoon the batter into the already prepared muffin tin, filling each about 3/4 full.

Bake – Place the above ingredients in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick, spikey tool, or knife inserted into the center mass of a muffin will come out clean.

Cool and Serve – Once done, remove the muffins from the oven and let them slowly cool at room temperature in the tin for about 5 minutes. Afterward, transfer them to your wire rack to cool completely.
