Ingredients

  • 2 flax eggs (2 tbsp. ground flaxseed + 5 tbsp. water) or egg substitute
  • cup yogurt
  • 2 medium bananas
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 scoop Solgar® Grass Fed Whey to Go® chocolate protein powder
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Chocolate chips for topping (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  • Prepare flax eggs in a small bowl, by mixing together the ground flax & water. Set aside about 10 minutes. It will thicken up and become gel-like.
  • When the flax eggs are ready, add all the ingredients (except the toppings) into a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Scrape down sides as needed.
  • Pour mixture into each slot about 3/4 of the way full. Sprinkle each one with your favorite toppings Bake for 15-18 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Insert a toothpick in the middle of a muffin or two. If it comes out mostly clean, they are done.
