Ingredients
- 3 medium-to-large bananas
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond or coconut milk
- 2 tbs. chia seeds
- 4 scoops Life Time vanilla grass-fed whey protein powder
- 1 tbs. vanilla extract
- 1 tbs. cinnamon
- 1 zucchini, chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup gluten-free oats
- Optional toppings: raisins, strawberries, blueberries, or chocolate chips
Directions
STEP 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
STEP 2
In a blender, combine the bananas, nut milk, chia seeds, whey protein powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and zucchini. Once blended, the mixture should be the consistency of cake batter.
STEP 3
Hand mix the pecans and oats into the batter — do not blend.
STEP 4
Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. The muffins will come out very moist, so this step is important!
STEP 5
Pour the batter into each of the muffin tins until they’re about 80 percent full. Sprinkle on any optional desired toppings.
STEP 6
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy immediately, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three to four days, or freeze for later.
