Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 6-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla bean paste until completely smooth and no streaks of yogurt remain.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until a thick, smooth batter forms.
- Stir in the almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the batter is thick but scoopable, similar to soft pancake batter.
- Gently fold in the finely chopped strawberries, being careful not to overmix so the muffins stay tender.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 6 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full, and tap the pan lightly on the counter to release any air pockets.
- Top each muffin with a few extra strawberry pieces for added flavor and color.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly golden at the edges and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Use finely chopped strawberries so the muffins bake evenly and do not collapse in the center.
- The texture will feel very soft when hot; let the muffins cool fully so they set and are easier to handle.
- Store at room temperature for up to 24 hours, then refrigerate in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
- For longer storage, freeze the cooled muffins in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer bag and thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
