I’m really loving these right now. They are super easy to make and they store wonderfully in the freezer. Grab and go for snack time never got easier!
The 5g of protein in each muffin, along with the cinnamon is amazing for hormonal balance. Plus, the rolled oats promote bowel regularity and gut health. All of which are incredibly important for fertility health.
How to eat the Apple Cinnamon muffins:
You could easily pair this muffin with other items for a hearty breakfast too. Since we want to aim for about 25g of protein for breakfast, consider these options to make this a complete meal:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt topped with 1 tbsp hemp, small handful of pumpkin seeds, and 1/2 cup fresh berries and an Apple Cinnamon muffin
- 3 whole eggs sautéed with vegetables and an Apple Cinnamon muffin
- Smoothie with 1 fruit serving, 1 veggie serving, 1 fat serving, liquid of your choice and a plant-based protein powder (20g per scoop).
