Banana Protein Muffins
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare a muffin pan with cooking spray or paper muffin cups and get out of all the necessary ingredients.

  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine mashed bananas with egg, maple syrup, oil and vanilla. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth.

  3. In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients - flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch. For best results, spoon flour into cup (rather than scooping with cup) and then level using a butter knife. If adding in additional mix-in, such as chocolate chips, toss in the flour mixture.

  4. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add wet ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Don't overmix - some small streaks of flour are fine.

  5. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin tins filling each one completely full and top with a few additional chocolate chips, if desired. Put muffin tray in at 425, then turn down to 325 for 30 minutes. The high heat will cause muffins to rise and then you will lower heat to cook the center of the muffin.

  6. Remove from oven and allow muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. You might need to run a butter knife along the outer edge of the muffins to loosen them from the pan.
