Chocolate Protein Muffins

I love these muffins!  They are so quick and easy...and perfect for when you're in a hurry in the morning!  This recipe was created by my girlfriend, Lisa Sharp.  She gave it to me when I was doing my Advocare 24 day challenge and it was my favorite thing during those 24 days!  I will share with you the recipe as she created it, and then let you know how I change it to my liking.

Chocolate Protein Muffins
Yields: 16 muffins

3 cups Spinach
1 Zucchini, chopped
2/3 cup Water
1 1/3 cup Egg Whites (or 5 whole eggs)

Puree above ingredients in blender until smooth. 

In a separate bowl, combine:

2 cups oat flour (whole oats, not quick oats, blended into a flour)
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1/2 unsweetened Cocoa Powder
3 scoops Chocolate Protein Powder
1/2 cup Stevia

Pour wet ingredients into dry.  Mix well and pour/spoon into greased (very lightly with coconut oil) muffin pan, almost full.

Bake at 350* for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Seriously the easiest muffins ever.  And so good! 

NOW!  Here's what I do different:

Sometimes I add 1 cup kale, in place of 1 cup spinach

I always omit the stevia and add 1tsp cinnamon instead

I also add 1 Tbsp flax seeds and 1 tsp chia seeds

When I'm feeling wild and crazy, I add a half cup of unsweetened coconut too!
