Low carb cinnamon muffins
Low carb cinnamon & pumpkin muffins
A low carb dessert option for any sweet teethβs out there. This recipe is a perfect snack option whether you are on the go or even a pre workout snack. What protein powder should I use? Vanilla @trueprotein works the best (vegan or whey). If you donβt want to use pumpkin then sweet potato, mashed banana and apple also works well (needs to be pureed)
1/2 cup almond meal
2 scoops protein powder
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup almond butter
1/2 cup pureed pumpkin or apple
1/2 cup coconut oil or home made bone broth
2 tbs rolled oats
GLAZE
1/8 cup almond butter
1/8 cup milk of choice
1 tsp lemon juice
METHOD

In a bowl, combine your dry ingredients and mix well. Add the wet ingredients and then mix until all is fully incorporated
Evenly distribute the batter amongst the muffin liners. Sprinkle the oats on top. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
