    2 serving GNC Pro Performance Whey Isolate 28 Protein Powder (Vanilla): 1 scoop= 1 serving
    .5 tsp Baking Powder
    .125 tsp Salt
    1 tsp Pumpkin Pie spice
    2 tsp Cinnamon, ground

    100 gram Yogurt - Stonyfield Organic Oikos Greek Yogurt Vanilla (serving size 1 container / 150g)

    0.75 cup Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin Puree (by CD2626788)
    2 oz Walnuts

Tips

Skip the nuts to reduce fat


Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a muffin tin with liners or use non-stick spray.

In a large bowl combine flours, protein powder, baking powder, pumpkin spice, cinnamon and salt.

In a medium sized bowl whisk together pumpkin, yogurt, egg, sugar and vanilla.

Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and mix until just combined.

Fill the prepared muffin tin, nearly filling each muffin to the top. This should make ~7 or so muffins, depending on the size of your muffin tin.

If desires, top with chopped nuts (I used pecans!), chocolate chips or even shredded coconut!

Bake muffins at 400 for 18-20 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Allow to cool fully and enjoy! Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.
