Just thought I would share a few muffin recipes...I'm not a baker so if you are and modify the recipe, let me know!! Oh, and use foil muffin cups because these are sticky.

Carrot Cake Protein Muffins - almost identical to Jamie Eason carrot cake protein bars

1 cup of oat flour (I just grind up old fashioned oats in the food processor...approximately 1 3/4 cup makes 1 cup ground)
3 scoops of vanilla protein powder (I use One Titan Complete Nutrition Vanilla Bean, has 240 cal/scoop)
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp allspice
1/8 tsp nutmeg
4 egg whites (or 12 tbs of egg beaters)
1/4 cup sugar (this is optional, these are pretty sweet without the sugar, but the sugar makes them more cake like)
8-10 oz of baby food carrots
6-8 baby carrots grated

Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix dry ingredients together. Mix wet ingredients together and add to dry ingredients. If it seems a little too thick add some sugar free applesauce or water to thin out. Should be the consistency of any muffin mix. Bake 20 +/- min depending on oven. Makes ~18 muffins. 1.2 g fat, 11.5 g carb (4.5g sugar), 9.9 g protein, 99 calories per muffin.
