Banana Protein Muffins



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I found this recipe on Pinterest, and it is really yummy, so I thought I would share it with you. Each muffin has 58 calories, 9 carbs and 7 grams of Protein.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup Ripe banana (about 1 large banana)

3/4 cup Egg whites

1/2 cup Plain low fat greek yogurt (I used plain Chobani yogurt)

3/4 cup Oats (use gluten free if sensitive to gluten)

2 scoop vanilla Protein powder (I used Designer Whey™, or you could use any flavor you would like!)

1/4 cup Baking stevia OR 1/2 cup sweetener of choice that measures like sugar

1 tsp Baking powder

1 tsp Baking soda

1/2 tsp Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350. Spray muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or line with silicone or foil liners (spray liners if using).

Place all of the ingredients into a blender and blend until mixture is smooth.

Divide mixture evenly between 12 muffin tins.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.

(Note: be sure to use either silicone or foil liners with the paper insert removed because they will stick, as does any muffin made with oats rather than flour!)

Not sure if baking Protein Powder is a good thing I'm sure it messes with the integrity of the Protein anyone know about this?

If you search the internet, there are tons of recipes made with Protein powder. If cooking denatured Proteins to the point that they were unusable by the body, we would all be eating our steaks raw. Heating the whey past about 105 degrees F will break some of the peptide linkages between the amino acids, but it will in no way render the amino acids useless (unless they heated to the point that the amino acids began to react, which is extremely unlikely).

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
