Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup vanilla protein powder (plant-based or whey)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 large eggs

1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if unavailable)

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Whisk together until fully combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the honey (or maple syrup), unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; some lumps are okay!

          Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Fill Muffin Tin: Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with the batter.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

                Cool & Serve: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Enjoy! These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week and are perfect for a healthy on-the-go breakfast or snack!
