The easiest healthy muffins ever! No BS!
This muffin recipe is so simple it is ridiculous! There is no added sugar or fat and there are only four ingredients!
I have been making this muffin recipe and other variations of it for well over a year now and every single one of my clients that has made it also loves it!
There is nothing more important when it comes to staying on-track with your health and fitness goals than being prepared with healthy snacks. Having healthy snacks on-hand at all times means that you will be less likely to stop at the store for junk-food or reach into the cupboard for something that you will likely regret later.
So, whether you are trying to lose fat, gain muscle or simply improve your nutrition, these muffins are the ticket!

Instructions for both recipes:
Set oven to 350F
Mash the bananas so that you end up with a cup of mashed bananas, add the other ingredients and then mix everything together
Portion out the batter into a muffin pan (ideally silicone) and gently press it down with a spoon
Bake for 20-25 minutes (check them at 20-minutes just to be safe as every oven is different)
Notes:
Use a silicone muffin tray if possible as this will make removal much easier
If the mixture seems too dry then add another banana
If the mixture seems too mushy then add more oats or protein powder
Be aware that all ovens vary so my advice is to inspect the muffins after 20-minutes to see how firm they are
Recipe #1
Ingredients:
1 cup of mashed banana (about 3 large bananas)
2.5 cups of quick or rolled oats
1/4 cup of your favourite protein powder (typically one scoop)
1/2 cup of frozen berries
Yield: Makes 12 medium-sized muffins.
Recipe #2
Ingredients:
1 cup of mashed banana (about 3 large bananas)
2.5 cups of quick or rolled oats
1/4 cup of your favourite protein powder (typically one scoop)
1/2 a cup of grated carrot
Yield: Makes 12 medium-sized muffins.
Recipe #3 (variation I often make)
Ingredients:
4 mashed bananas (medium)
3 cups of quick oats
1/2 cup of rolled oats
1/2 cup of frozen blueberries
1 scoop of Leanfit protein powder
Yield: Makes 12 medium-sized muffins.
Nutrition information per muffin for Recipe #3:
Calories: 142.5 (all ingredients)
Protein: 5.5g (oats and protein powder)
Carbohydrates: 27.13g (bananas, oats, blueberries, protein powder)
Fat: Insignificant amount
Note: If you double the protein powder each muffin will contain 7.58g of protein (152.5 Calories per muffin) and if you triple the protein powder each muffin will contain 9.66g of protein (162.5 Calories per muffin). As you add more protein the batter will get drier so you may need to add more banana (or you could possibly try water).
