Ingredients
-
1 large ripe banana
1/2 C. low fat greek yogurt (I used Oikos 0% plain)
3/4 C. oats
5 egg whites
2 scoops vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup sweetener that measures like sugar (I used individual packages, about 12)
1 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. cinnamon
Tips
Add a handful of raisins for a bit of chewy sweetness, or some chocolate chips for some gooey goodness (keep in mind this will up the calorie and sugar count, etc.)
These are not a typical muffin texture, rather I found them to have a texture similar to angel food cake.
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Coat muffin tin with non-stick spray (or line with foil or silicone liners - no paper, it will stick).
Combine ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Fill muffin tins about 1/2 - 3/4 full (roughly 1/4 C.).
Bake 15-18 minutes, or when toothpick comes out clean.
Serving Size: Makes 12 servings, roughly 1/4 cup each
