1 tbsp flaxseed oil
14g
1 banana
140g
2 tbsp walnuts
16g
1 tsp stevia leaf sweetener
1g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with paper liners or a light coating of non-stick spray.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the multi-grain oatmeal, oats, cinnamon, whey protein powder, and baking soda. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.
3. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites and flaxseed oil. Ensure that the oil is evenly distributed throughout the egg whites.
4. Mash the Banana:
In a small bowl, mash the banana using a fork until it reaches a smooth consistency. Add the mashed banana to the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.
5. Combine Ingredients:
Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredient bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
6. Sweeten the Batter:
Add the stevia leaf sweetener to the mixture and stir until evenly incorporated.
7. Add Walnuts:
Gently fold in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the batter.
8. Fill Muffin Tin:
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
9. Bake:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
10. Cool:
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
