Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 medium lemon, zested and juiced
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • ¾ cup pea protein powder
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsweetened vanilla-flavored almond milk
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.

Step 2
Mix yogurt, butter, egg, egg white, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a medium bowl.

Step 3
Mix flour, protein powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir to combine; mixture will be very thick. Stir in almond milk until mixture is smooth. Gently stir in fresh blueberries. Dollop batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.

Cook’s Note:

I use Oikos(R) Triple Zero high protein yogurt.
