This muffins delivers on flavor and PROTEIN! Each muffin is approximately 8g of protein each.
​
Preheat 350°       Silicon muffin tray or individual muffin cup/mold
 
Ingredients
74 g NuGo protein powder (or other high protein powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1 ½ cups tigernut flour
3 eggs, room temperature
2 tsp baking powder
1 ¼ cups lactaid milk (or milk or almond milk)
 
Ingredient for Drizzle
4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
½ Tbsp coconut oil, melted
2 ounces unsweetened peanut butter
 
Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, add the protein powder, cinnamon, baking powder, and tigernut flour and mix well.
2. Add egg, melted oil, and milk into the large bowl and mix well. Batter should appear fluffy.
3. In a microwave, add the drizzle ingredients to a microwaveable bowl. Place in the microwave for 15 seconds increments mix until melted and smooth.
4. **If you choose to have the drizzle on the bottom (see #7 below) then the next step is placing an equal amount of drizzle in 12 muffins cups/molds. Spread evenly.
5. Scoop the batter, equally, into each cup/mold.
6. Place in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
7. If you choose to place the drizzle on the bottom, place the silicon muffin tray/cups into the freezer for 20-30 and they will be able to pop out easily.
8. If you DID NOT choose to drizzle on the bottom then you will now spread the drizzle, equally, on each muffin.

I like to individually wrap my muffins and others treats and place in the freezer. I just pop them out a few minutes before I want to eat them.
