Minute Muffin Ideas

 I've just discovered the minute muffins in a cup.  Here's the recipe I'm using:

1/4 c. oatmeal (blended into flour)
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp Splenda
1 tsp Sugar
1 egg

It works out to about 5.5 g protein and 90 calories but I'd love to push the protein a little more.  Has anyone done this?  What were your results?

I use Unjury unflavored, any ideas on how I could change the recipe to incorporate more protein?

Lastly, what kinds of fun add-ins are you using?

Do tell!

I have made them added protein powder, and it works just fine.

I make these, but use ground flax seed,  and NO SUGAR.  Here's the recipe:

1/4 cup flax meal (grind ½ c seeds  in bullet)
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 or 2 packets of splenda (and/or a shot of SF cinnamon syrup)
1 teas cinnamon
1 large egg

Mix in the Bullet for about 5 seconds (make sure well blended)
Microwave for 1 minute! (in the same cup)

According to CalorieCounter.com this variation has 12.4 g protein, but the calories are closer to 200.



If you want you can add 2 T of cream cheese to the mixture (it manages to
stay in the muffin and ooze out when you eat it....AND it will UP the protein a bit, but also the calories.)

Here is a recipe that tastes like a brownie:

Chocolate/Walnut:

About 1/4 cup flax seed meal,

1 egg
1/2 tsp. baking powder 
rounded tablespoon of plain greek yogurt

heaping tablespoon of  cocoa powder 
2 teaspoons Splenda,

a handful of chopped walnuts,

and a shake of mini-chocolate chips (sugar free if you have them.

 

I nuked for 75 seconds and let it stand for a minute.

Another variation would be banana (use 1/2 a mashed banana instead of the yogurt) and some banana protein powder.

THis looks like something simple I could do! How long do yo;u cook this? Microwave or oven? I am single so this looks great.

I was thinking of a few chocolate chips or a little peanut butter!
