Servings: 12 muffins
Calories: 231kcal
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt 180 g
- 2/3 cup honey 220 g
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup avocado oil
- 2 cups oat flour 210 g
- 1/2 cup packed vanilla whey protein powder 40 g but will vary based on brand
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup diced strawberries rinsed and thoroughly dried (145 g)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper or silicone liners, and set aside.
- Dice the strawberries into small pieces, about 1/4-inch cubes. Place the diced strawberries on a paper towel to absorb some of the moisture and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, honey, eggs, and oil. Whisk together until smooth.
- In a smaller mixing bowl, add the oat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together.
- Pour the dry ingredients in a bowl with the wet ingredients and stir together until there are no lumps or streaks of dry ingredients.
- Use a rubber spatula to fold the diced strawberries into the batter.
- Using a 2-ounce scoop or large spoon, divide the batter between the muffin wells.
- Place the muffins in the oven and bake for 16-20 minutes (17 minutes was perfect for my oven), or until the tops are golden and they can pass the toothpick test.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes before enjoying.
