On a cold day, a warm muffin and coffee for breakfast sounds divine…
I don’t crave baked goods for the most part, but a muffin that is gluten free and packs more protein than one egg really works for me!
These took some experimenting to get the nutritional numbers balanced the way I wanted while keeping the integrity of that bakery shop rival!
I have only used the ZEN FUZE protein powder in my muffin recipes so I can’t answer how they will turn out using a different brand, but would love to know if you have success using the brand of your choice!
I personally use the FUZE in other recipes and in my shakes and have found it to be a superior product so it’s become a staple in our house!
Enjoy…oh, a schmear of cream cheese is a realllllllyyyy nice addition!
