These High Protein Apple Cinnamon Muffins use TVP instead of protein! The texture is just like baked oats and the flavor is on point!

Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 F (177 C).
  • Mix 2 tablespoons of flax seeds with 6 tablespoons of water. Let sit for at least 5 minutes (This makes flax “egg” goo).
  • In a large bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, brown sugar, milk, vanilla, and flax “egg” goo.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients - flour, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking soda, baking powder. Once well combined, stir in (dry) TVP very well.
  • Add dry ingredients slowly to wet ingredients and combine.
  • Add in (peeled and diced) apple chunks.
  • Evenly distribute the batter across all 12 (lined) muffin cup things on your muffin tray.
  • Bake for 12 - 15 minutes. Will come out a little gooey (if you cook too long it will dry out); let sit for about 15 - 30 minutes and they will set up.

PDV High Protein Apple Cinnamon Muffins
Soy-free Option:
  • Use Textured Pea Protein instead of TVP - you can buy this on Amazon - I like the brand Acre Made.
  • Use a different non-dairy milk other than soy milk - this is mostly to add moisture so it doesn't really matter which you use in this recipe.
  • Use a soy-free non-dairy yogurt instead of the vegan Greek yogurt (unless you can find a Greek yogurt that is soy-free) - this will slightly alter the protein macros but is mostly used for moisture in this recipe so it won't affect the texture/flavor!
