How to Make Banana Protein Muffins
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup Splenda (or other sugar substitute), 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, beat 3 large egg whites until frothy using a whisk or fork.
- Stir in 2 mashed ripe bananas (about 1 cup), ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce, ½ cup chopped nuts (optional), and ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy).
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Add 4 tablespoons protein powder and mix until evenly distributed.
- Spoon batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
