Peanut Butter High Protein Blender Muffins

Blender muffins are a fan favorite around here. They are super easy to make – mix all of the ingredients in a blender, bake and enjoy. Take a look at some of our other blender muffin (and bread) recipes here.

Not only are these blenders a tasty, well-rounded snack, but they also pack a protein punch. As runners, we need to make sure that we are nailing our daily protein needs, and these muffins make it easy. Grab 2 of these for breakfast <with some extra carbs and/or protein, depending on your individual needs> or one of these would make a great snack.

I love the combination of peanut butter powder + peanut butter to kick up the peanutty flavor while adding additional protein and healthy fats. Feel free to add some chocolate chips on top, because we all know that’s never a bad idea. Blender muffins keep great in the freezer, so you can pull them out and pop them in the microwave as an addition to any meal or snack.
