Quick Pumpkin Protein Muffins — Kid & Adult Approved

Pumpkin Protein Muffins 🎃

A cozy, fall-inspired treat that’s just sweet enough — and packed with protein to keep you satisfied! These pumpkin muffins are perfect for busy mornings, post-workout snacks, or a healthier Halloween option for kids and adults.

Ingredients

• 1 cup pumpkin spice protein powder (brand I've used and loved in notes)

• 1½ cups oats

• 3 eggs

• 1 cup almond flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract

• ¼ cup pure maple syrup

• 8 tablespoons butter, melted

• ¼ cup Lily’s white chocolate chips (or your favorite mix-in!)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cups or lightly grease it.

2. In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients until well combined.

3. Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups.

4. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

5. Let cool and enjoy warm or chilled!

Quick Tip

For a lighter, lower-fat option, swap the butter for unsweetened applesauce — it keeps the muffins moist and delicious without sacrificing flavor.
