Frequently Asked Questions
How long do these muffins stay fresh?
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Why are my muffins dry?
Protein powder absorbs moisture. Don't skip the Greek yogurt, and avoid overbaking. Check at 18 minutes with a toothpick.
Can I add mix-ins like chocolate chips?
Absolutely! Fold in ½ cup chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped nuts before scooping into the muffin tin.
How should I reheat frozen muffins?
Microwave for 30-45 seconds, or thaw at room temperature for 1 hour. They're also great eaten cold!
