Here is an excellent and easy one from outside Magazoine that includes BACON!!!0 -
No texture is added from the sfff pudding mix...it basically acts like a binder for the ingredients. Also I find any recepie I make I can add more protein ...or for muffins I always sub at least half the flour for protein powder...
Hmmmm.... I wonder if that "formula" will work for making protein pancakes by substituiting some of the flour for protein.0 -
yummy. :P0

Zuchinni Protein muffins! THESE ARE MY FAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is all I got folks...and like I mentioned I use the jamie eason pumpkin bars (and cinnimon swirl bread) I just subsitute half the flour for protein...when baking with extra protein you have to keep an eye on the oven, becuse it seems to burn/bake fatser.
I omitted the carrots...and only used a 1/4 cup flour and substituted the other 1/2 cup with PROTEIN...no nuts...and They came to 100 cals a pop! Oh and I did add the cocoa powder!! Soooo good
zucchini carrot muffins: (around 115 calories a muffin with 1 scoop of optiumum nutrition whey protein powder)
makes 9 muffins 13c/10p/2f
3/4 cup oat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
a pinch of salt
1tsp. of vanilla extract
1 tablespoon or more of cinnamon
1 pinch of nutmeg
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 cup of no sugar added applesauce
1 egg
1/4 cup truvia or stevia (i use truvia) for a less sweeter muffin or 1/2 cup if you like them sweeter
1/2 cup grated zucchini
1/4 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup of oat bran
1/4 cup of chopped walnuts
1/4 to 1/2 cup of water (add a little at 1st until the consistancy is okay)
*top with a sprinkle of oats and cinnamon
**optional: add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder, 1 or 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder, all natural dark chocolate chips, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds** these all will change the calorie count of course
the chocolate zucchini muffins are pretty much the same. i just got rid of the carrot and grated 1 med. zucchini. added 1 or 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder(which i think i might leave out next time unless i add dark chocolate chips) and i added 1 tablespoon of chia seeds. and didnt add the protein powder to these. the calorie count on these were about the same, maybe a few calories less.
preheat oven to 350 degress
sift oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg(sift a few times)
in another bowl whisk the egg, truvia, oil, applesauce, zucchini & carrot. mix in the flour mixture then add the oat bran & walnuts.
spray pay with non stick spray or use muffin liners(i did this) and fill them all about the same. 3/4 way full. then bake 12-18minutes(mine varied both times) just keep an eye on them and a toothpick handy

I must have done something incorrectly. My bars did not harden. They are delicious, but messy. I used Chocolate PB instead of peanut butter, but that should not have made that big of a difference. This recipe is a keeper!0 -
These are the BOMB! After they cool toss them in the fridge for an hour or so and then cut them. If not you'll just end up with a giant mess. We cut ours into 36 bars that we put into zip lock bags and freeze. They don't freeze completely it just keeps them hard. I've included the different variations that I use along with the total calorie count for the entire pan and the cals per bar. I also bolded the options. I put all of the bold options in my bars. The PB adds a little something flavor-wise. Next time I'm going to do almond butter. You can put in whatever you want or nothing at all!
The awesome thing is they are super easy to make.
2 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
3 tbsp flax seed
3 tbsp ground flax seed meal
3/4 cup coconut
2 tbsp hemp nuts
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
2 tbsp wheat germ
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1 tsp cinnamon
4 scoops protein powder
1 c. Dried cranberries*
1 c. Raisins*
1 c. Frozen blueberries*
1 square dark choc. Unsweetened shaved*
Mix the following ingredients together and then add them to the dry mixture
1/4 cup honey
1 cup (plus a little more) unsweetened apple sauce
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 Cup peanut butter*
If the mixture doesn't stick together just add a bit more applesauce
Sometimes I grate a bit of chocolate to add in, sometimes raisins etc whatever you like
Bake at 325 for 22 minutes in a 9 by 13 pan
Enjoy
