Provenance Meals Double Cacao Protein Muffins Recipe by Maddie Pasquariello / East Coast Health

For me, protein powders have to tick a lot of boxes (there are so many out there, so I feel like we can all afford to be picky!) First, they have to have a good ratio of macronutrients (carbs, protein, and fat). Second, they have to taste good (always a given). Third, the texture has to be spot-on (no murky residue or graininess). And last, ideally, the powder has some sort of benefit in addition to adding protein, which Provenance’s Camu Cacao Superfood Protein Powder most definitely has: camu powder adds a high amount of vitamin C, while cacao contains flavonoids and antioxidants!

Protein powders are great not only as a base for a quick shake or smoothie, but I love incorporating them into recipes for an extra boost of protein and flavor.

Double Cacao Protein Powered Muffin Recipe

(Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)

to prepare:

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prepare muffin tin by spritzing with coconut oil or lining with muffin liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, Provenance Meals’ Camu Cacao Superfood Protein Powder, salt, and baking soda.
In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, vanilla, melted and cool coconut oil, and your choice of natural sweetener. Whisk well to combine, then add the wet ingredients to the dry. Gently fold together.
Finally, add in the dark chocolate and stir just to combine.
Pour batter into muffins so that wells are ⅔ full. Bake in preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. It’s okay if they’re still a touch underdone, as they’ll continue cooking once you remove them!
