Lemon Blueberry Protein Muffins

Lemon blueberry protein muffins are a quick and easy approach to increased protein consumption. For this recipe, I opted to use a plant-based protein vs. using whey protein. All of the other ingredients exclude dairy, so using plant-based protein helped to keep the entire recipe dairy free.

I’ve made blueberry protein muffins in the past. They were ok, but not great. Adding lemon extract to the recipe gave it a lot of zest! These muffins are incredible. They are very easy for meal prep use. I packed a couple in a Ziplock bag and stored them in my refrigerator for the week. Each morning I would grab a bag and go.

I had high hopes but these weren’t winners, had a chemically taste not sure if it was from the lemon extract (McCormick brand) or all the stevia. I wish I had read the comments first and tried real lemon and hone instead. I would try again but it was also pretty grainy.

The texture of these turned out really strange. And the lemon extract made mine taste chemical like - maybe it's just my brand of extract. Also, might be helpful to put a scoop size for the protein powder since adding more or less powder can definitely affect texture. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

Did the protein powder you used only have 12 grams of protein in it? Or is it 12g/serving?

Is there another flour I could use instead of Almond? We have a peanut tree nut allergy at our house. She is not allergic to coconut thought - could we use all coconut flour?

There are other flours you could use, such as coconut, but it is a lot denser than almond flour. They don't have a 1:1 substitution ratio so you would have to do some research and experimenting to tweak the recipe.
