Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure milk and yogurt.

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Gently fold in the chopped pistachios, reserving a small amount to sprinkle on top of the muffins if desired.

Evenly distribute the batter between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Sprinkle any reserved pistachios over the tops of the muffins.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your high protein pistachio muffins cool or slightly warmed. They make a great snack or quick breakfast on the go!
