Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup vanilla protein powder

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if fresh are unavailable)

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional, for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with muffin liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Whisk until well combined.

      Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another medium bowl, whisk together the honey (or maple syrup), applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.

          Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Portion into Muffin Tin: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                Cool: Once baked, let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Enjoy: Serve them warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for a week.
