Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a 16-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Spray the insides of the muffin liners with olive oil (this will stop the muffins from sticking).
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, Greek yogurt, honey, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk together.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries until just combined. (I like to hold a few back to add to the tops of the muffins)
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake for 20-24 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins form the oven and cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes.
- Move the muffins to a wire rack to cool, or serve warm.
- Will hold in the fridge for 5 days or in the freezer for a month.
