Notes

Yields 6 muffins.

*My scoop of protein powder contained 30g by weight, and when I put into some measuring cups it was a little less than 1/2 cup, but more than 1/3 cup. The protein powder scoop I had contained 108 calories and 25g of protein in that scoop of a little less than 1/2 cup. Go more by calories and protein than by amount in this case for whatever protein powder you choose to use.

*Use vanilla flavored protein powder and if the protein powder itself is unsweetened (most protein powders flavored vanilla will have some sort of sugar free sweetener in it, I recommend one with stevia) recipe will need additional Swerve and stevia to compensate otherwise it will not taste good.

**Sub almond flour, it works great too.

***STEVIA NOTES: 1/32 tsp stevia = the scoop that comes in stevia bottle = 1 packet stevia. If you do not like stevia, use more erythritol-based sweetener to compensate. It’s not nearly as sweet so per scoop you may need to add 1-3 more tsp. to taste. Please see the “Sweeteners” tutorial on P3tolife.com under the Shopping Tutorials section.
