Ingredients
Instructions
1. preheat your oven to 375 F (190 C). line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
2. in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, protein powder, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly distributed.
3. in a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, unsweetened applesauce, eggs, melted coconut oil (or other oil), and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
4. pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
5. gently fold in your chosen mix-ins, such as blueberries, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
6. divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
7. bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. the tops should be golden brown and spring back when lightly touched.
8. allow the muffins to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
