Protein Pumpkin Muffin with Origin

My all-time favorite recipe that Abbi bakes 👏.

This Plant Based recipe is gluten free, soy free, dairy free, non-gmo, fiber rich and PFC3 balanced!

It’s also a fantastic choice for a “grab n go” quick meal & much cleaner then a protein bar.

Here are the 3 main products to use:

And a quick note – I like a scoop of Fit 20 with some unsweetened Almond Milk for a 10 gram protein shot and to drink it while I eat the muffin.

This gives me some extra protein to keep it PFC3 & optimize my blood sugar balance.

Here’s the macro breakdown & recipe:

Makes: 12 giant muffins
Calories per muffin: 205
Protein: 11 g
Fat: 10g
Carbs: 18g

Whisk together the following:

  • Simple Mills Pumpkin Muffin Mix
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 cup water
  • 2/3 cup coconut oil

⭐️ The consistency is thick, if you prefer it less thick then you can add more water – 1 Tablespoon at a time and whisk. You can also make it with vanilla or chocolate Origin, or both ⭐️
