High Protein Blueberry Muffins This Morning

blueberry-muffin-batch1I often like a muffin and a cup of coffee for breakfast, but most muffin recipes are too low in protein and fiber. These muffins taste great and are high in protein, fiber and low in fat. The calories shown are if you add blueberries. Adjust if you substitute other flavors.

3/4 c. white flour
1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1/4 c. Metamucil clear and natural
2 scoops whey protein powder (natural)
3/4 c. sugar
1 T. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon

1 c. 2% milk
1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1/2 c. egg beaters

1/2 t. vanilla extract

 

Add in Options
1 c. blueberries, chocolate chips, raisins, craisins, or your favorite fruit

In large bowl, mix dry ingredients. Mix liquid ingredients in a separate bowl. Gently fold dry and liquid ingredients together until loosley mixed. Then fold in blueberries. Spoon into 12 standard muffin cups or 6 jumbo muffin cups. Bake at 400 for 20 mins (standard size) or 30 mins (jumbo size) or until done.
