Sweet Almond Mini Protein Muffins - Shelly's

Ingredients

  • 1 Egg, beaten
  • 3 Tablespoons Milk
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar Free Torani Syrup (I used SF Almond)
  • 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
  • 3 Tablespoons Multigrain Pancake Mix
  • 2 Tablespoons Almond Meal
  • 1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
  • Pinch salt
  • a few sliced Almonds for the top

Preparation

Step 1

In a measuring cup mix egg, milk, syrup, and oil (applesauce or cottage cheese can sub for oil but 1 T divided between 12 muffins is really not a lot) and combine thoroughly. In a separate bowl, mix pancake mix, almond meal, protein powder and salt. Tip dry into wet and stir till combined. Pour into a non stick mini muffin pan that has been sprayed with Pam.

Optional: I placed 2 Tablespoons of sliced Almonds in a pan with 1 Tablespoon of SF Torani Almond Syrup and sauteed them till syrup was absorbed and almond had a little golden tinge. Cool. I placed a few on top of each muffin. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes, until knife inserted comes out clean. Makes 12.
