Baked goods are typically a high-calorie indulgence, but since these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are made with unsweetened applesauce, egg whites, and stevia sweetener, feel free to dig in! These muffins also have an added 9 grams of protein, making them the perfect energizing snack.
Ingredients:
1.5 c. oat flour
3 x 30 gram scoops whey protein powder (vanilla)
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/2 c. stevia baking formula (or 12-14 stevia packets)
1/3 c. mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 c. canned pumpkin
1/3 c. unsweetened applesauce
4 egg whites
1 tsp. vanilla
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl. Mix wet ingredients together in another bowl. Add the wet mixture to the dry and stir until blended. Scoop batter into a sprayed muffin tin. Bake for 15-16 minutes.
