These high Protein Banana Muffins are so easy to make and packed with wholesome oats, ripe bananas, and Greek yogurt for a nutritious breakfast or snack.
Protein Banana Muffins that taste amazing.
I'm all about healthier muffins that leave me feeling full, and these protein muffins hit the mark! I love that they're naturally sweetened with maple syrup and ready in just 30 minutes. They're great for meal prep, or after school snacks and freezer-friendly too!
I use a little trick of starting them at high heat and then dropping the temperature, which gives them those beautiful bakery-style muffin tops. Trust me, once you try these, you'll be finding excuses to let your bananas get spotty just so you can make another batch!
Don't miss my other high protein recipes, like Chocolate Overnight Oats, Protein Pizza, or Protein Waffles.
How to make Protein Banana Muffins:
Make Muffin Batter: Blend the oats in a food processor until it's a flour consistency. Pour it in a mixing bowl with the other dry ingredients. Mash the bananas in another bowl then mix in egg, yogurt, vanilla, and maple syrup. Gently fold in the dry ingredients.
Bake: Scoop batter into a greased or lined muffin pan. Bake at 375°F for 5 minutes then reduce the heat and bake for 10-15 more minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
