SO I MADE THIS RECIPE BELOW, BUT I DOUBLE ALL THE INGREDIENTS (OMITTING FLAXSEED AS I DIDN'T HAVE ANY LEFT) I WAS ABLE TO GET 6 MUFFINS OUT OF THAT. MY CALORIE CALCULATIONS ARE 106 PER MUFFIN...COULD SOMEONE HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT? THANKS A BUNCH...THIS IS MY PROBLEM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT SERVING SIZES WHEN DOING HOMEMADE RECIPES

Makes 1 large muffin or 2 medium sized ones, (Prep Time: 5-minutes, Total Time: 35-minutes)

Ingredients:

1/2 Banana
1 Scoop Whey Protein Powder
1 tbsp Flaxseed Meal
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 Egg White (Or 3 tbsp of Egg Whites)
3 tbsp Steel Cut Oats (Already Cooked)
1/2 tsp of Baking Powder
1/2 tsp of Baking Soda
1/8 tsp Salt
2 tbsp frozen Blueberries

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine protein powder, flaxseed, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. Mix with a fork or spoon thoroughly. Next add in the banana, oatmeal and egg whites. Mix with an immersion blender until it becomes a smooth like consistency. Grease large muffin tins with canola oil or other non stick oil spray. Pour batter into muffin tin. Add in frozen blueberries in the center of muffin. Place in oven for 30 minutes. Check after 20 minutes. May take up to 35-40 minutes to reach desired toastiness. I used a tray that only holds 6 muffins. Each muffin would be a serving size but you would need to double the recipe to make 2. The muffins also turned out to be quite filling. I would suggest doubling the recipe to make 3 good sized muffins. Add a tablespoon of peanut butter or pair the muffin with a piece of fruit for a satisfying and healthy breakfast. Nutrition (1 Serving): 241 Calories, 4 g of Fat, 7.5 g of Fiber, 23.4 g of Protein

I made this muffin on a Sunday night and ate it for Breakfast on Tuesday. I brought it to NYC in a cooler that had zero ice. The muffin was wrapped in tin foil and stayed that way until I ate it since the hotel did not have a refrigerator. I would have preferred to keep it in there but it still tasted great and I was very happy with my accomplishment!

Update: I tripled this recipe and made 6 large sized muffins

    Have you ever utilized the recipe tool under the "Food" section of the website? I use it quite often when I make recipes from scratch. You can change the serving size per batch as you like and the calculations will adjust.
