Chocolate Protein Blender Muffins
I recently learned that I don’t eat enough protein in my diet. I’ve been trying to add small protein shakes into my diet, but sometimes those get a bit boring and I started thinking about other ways I could incorporate protein powder into my diet and I’ve always seen other baking recipes with it so I gave it a go with these Chocolate Protein Blender Muffins!
The best part about these muffins (aside from the fact that they are totally scrumptious, of course) is that you mix the batter in a blender! Just dump in all of the ingredients and blend until smooth, pour into a muffin pan, and bake! If you don’t have a blender, that’s okay, you can also mix them up the good old fashioned way in a mixing bowl.
Tips and Substitutions:
- I sweetened these with honey, but you could also use maple syrup or stevia!
- You can use either vanilla or chocolate protein powder. Or, if you don’t have protein powder, just replace the 1/4 cup with extra almond flour.
- You can make these without a blender if you don’t have one or don’t feel yours will blend the batter sufficiently. Just make sure you mash the banana with a fork before adding in the rest of the ingredients.
- The nutrition info includes chocolate chips. I like to just sprinkle some on top before baking. You can add more if you want to make them more appealing for kiddos or leave them out to cut calories.

One Comment on “Chocolate Protein Blender Muffins”
Thank you for this delicious recipe! I was not able to make it in the blender, because it’s motor was not strong enough. But I mixed it with my beaters and baked it, and it is delicious!
