Make these moist blueberry Greek yogurt protein muffins for a satisfying, high-protein breakfast or easy grab-and-go snack. They are simple to prepare and perfect for meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or whole milk recommended for moisture)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few streaks of flour are acceptable.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For the best texture, use a good quality whey or casein blend protein powder. Unflavored or vanilla works best.
  • If you prefer a lower sugar protein snacks option, you can substitute the maple syrup with a sugar substitute equivalent to 1/2 cup of sugar, adjusting sweetness to your taste.
  • These protein baked goods store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week. They are great for muffin meal prep.
