Protein Muffin in a Mug

Here is a super simple recipe that me and Nate love! Its really awesome as a late night snack when your craving something sweet. Or even as a perfect breakfast or post workout meal. Feel free to experiment yourselves with this recipe by adding oats, flax, pumpkin, the list goes on!


You will need two the basic ingredients:

1- 1 1/2 scoops whey protein power (any flavor of your choice for this recipe I used vanilla)
2 egg whites or 3 tablespoons egg beaters egg whites (just enough for the protein to be saturated)

Optional: You can experiment by adding any of these fun ideas:
1/2 cup oats
Flax seed
Chia Seeds
Peanut butter
Almond butter
Cinnamon
Stevia (to make it a little sweeter)
Pumpkin Spice
Pumpkin puree
Cocoa Powder
Raisins
Chocolate Chips :)

First add your whey protein into a mug or microwaveable bowl. Then add your egg whites. Microwave for no more than 45 seconds (longer then that will dry out the protein and make it really hard to eat) And thats it! Play around and add any of the ingredients above to make your own protein muffin creation!

My favorite protein muffin is the one that I made here using: vanilla protein powder, raisins, peanut butter, and pumpkin spice!

Nate's favorite protein muffin is: chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, stevia, peanut butter, and chocolate chips!

Be sure show us your recipes! And let us know what you think!
