Delicious and healthy gluten-free protein muffins made with almond and oat flours, perfect for a nutritious snack or breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup oat flour (certified gluten-free)
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup berries or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, applesauce, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently stir in the milk until the batter reaches a thick but pourable consistency. If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon more milk at a time.
  6. If using, fold in the berries or chocolate chips.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your oat flour is certified gluten-free if you have celiac disease or a severe gluten sensitivity.
  • You can substitute the applesauce with mashed banana for a different flavor profile.
  • Adjust the sweetness by using less or more maple syrup, or by adding a sugar substitute.
  • These muffins freeze well for future enjoyment.
