Ingredients
  

For the Muffins
  • 1 cup diced fresh peaches
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 12-cup muffin pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly coat with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
  6. Fold in the diced peaches.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
  8. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture. If the peaches are especially juicy, pat them lightly with a paper towel before folding them into the batter to prevent excess moisture.
