Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Pistachios, shelled and chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure milk and yogurt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped pistachios, reserving a small amount to sprinkle on top of the muffins if desired.
Evenly distribute the batter between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle any reserved pistachios over the tops of the muffins.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your high protein pistachio muffins cool or slightly warmed. They make a great snack or quick breakfast on the go!
