Easy Protein Banana Muffin Recipe
If you’re looking for a very easy banana muffin recipe that’s also healthy, this is it!
Why I love this easy protein recipe
There are 3 main reasons I love this banana muffin recipe:
- It’s easy easy to make!
- Each muffin has about 7 grams of protein.
- The muffins are so yummy.
They truly are so easy to make! I can whip up a double batch on a Sunday afternoon and keep them in the fridge or freezer until we’re ready to eat them. Because they are made with almond flour and not traditional flour they have a lot more protein than regular muffins and are naturally gluten free. Although they have no added sugar (other than the chocolate chips), they still taste sweet.
Why I make these banana muffins so often
The real reason I make these muffins so often is because my husband loves them. Anytime he tells me repeatedly he likes something and is excited to pack it for work days or work trips, that’s a win in my book! I also feel good about giving him these muffins because they are higher in protein, lower in sugar, and don’t have preservatives in them like prepackaged snacks.
But I also make them because I love them, especially if I pair them with a cup of coffee.
