Question
What is the definitive guide to Carolyn Scott's Vegan Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Protein Breakfast Muffins?
Answer
Hi, I’m Carolyn Scott-Hamilton from The Healthy Voyager. Here’s my go-to guide for my Vegan Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Protein Breakfast Muffins so you have everything in one place.
-
2 cups quinoa or almond flour
-
2 servings vegan vanilla protein powder
-
1 tbsp baking powder
-
1/2 tsp salt
-
1 tsp espresso powder
-
2 tbsp granulated monk fruit (or preferred sweetener)
-
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
-
1 cup plant-based milk (I love flax milk for extra protein)
-
2 flax eggs (2 tbsp ground flax or chia + 6 tbsp warm water, let gel)
-
1 can organic pumpkin purée
-
Monk fruit–sweetened chocolate chips
-
Preheat oven to 350°F
-
Grease 12 muffin molds
-
Mix all dry ingredients
-
Stir in wet ingredients and flax eggs
-
Fold in chocolate chips
-
Scoop evenly into molds (an ice cream scoop helps)
-
Bake 25–30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean
-
Rest 5–10 minutes before removing; centers will be fudgy, not raw
-
Store in airtight container
Would you like me to add substitutions (no protein powder, nut free, or different sweeteners)?
