Vanilla blueberry protein muffins are a delicious and nutritious breakfast or snack option that combines the sweet flavors of vanilla and blueberries with the health benefits of protein and whole grains. These muffins are not only simple to prepare but also packed with essential nutrients that can help fuel your day.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the multi-grain oatmeal, oats, whole-grain wheat flour, whey protein powder, and baking soda. Stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well blended.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir just until everything is incorporated. Do not overmix.
Add the stevia leaf sweetener to the batter and fold in the frozen blueberries. Be gentle to prevent the blueberries from breaking and bleeding too much into the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Fill each cup about 3/4 full to allow room for rising.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The muffins should be lightly golden on top.
Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

- Avoid over-mixing the batter to prevent the muffins from becoming dense.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
