CARROT CAKE PROTEIN MUFFINS
We heard so many good things about our banana muffin recipe that we thought we should share another simple protein muffin recipe! These carrot cake muffins are made in one bowl and take about 30 minutes from start to finish. The recipe is simple enough that kids can help with every step. These are a perfect breakfast for kids and adults alike! They also make a great snack for before or after sporting events or traveling in the car.
VARIATIONS ON THIS CARROT CAKE PROTEIN MUFFIN RECIPE
If you don't have access to Kodiak Cakes (we usually buy ours on Amazon or at Costco) you can also make these like our other protein muffin recipes by using oats and/or oat flour (totaling 2 cups) in place of the Kodiak Cake mix listed. You may need to adjust the amount of sweetener and/or liquid you use if you make this substitution so taste test the batter! Also, add 1 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp baking soda.
If you want to boost the protein content even more, add a scoop of your favorite clean eating protein powder or enjoy along with one of our popular protein shake recipes for a complete meal!
