🛒 What You’ll Need

  • 1 ½ cups Oat flour or Almond flour 🌾
  • 2 scoops Vanilla protein powder 🍦
  • ¼ cup Zero-calorie sweetener (like Monk Fruit) ☁️
  • 1 tsp Baking powder & a pinch of salt 🧂
  • 2 Large eggs 🥚
  • ½ cup Unsweetened almond milk or Greek yogurt 🥛
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract 🍦

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

  • 2 tbsp Melted coconut oil or butter 🧈
  • 1 tbsp Cinnamon 🤎
  • 2 tbsp Zero-calorie brown sugar substitute ☁️

For the Glaze:

  • ¼ cup Powdered erythritol ☁️
  • 1-2 tsp Almond milk (mix until it’s a thick, pourable drizzle!) 🥛

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Mix the Dry: In a large bowl, whisk together your flour, protein powder, sweetener, and baking powder. 🥣🌪️✨
  2. Combine the Wet: Add the eggs, milk (or yogurt), and vanilla. Mix until you have a smooth, thick batter. 🥛🥚🤝
  3. The Magic Swirl: In a small ramekin, mix your cinnamon swirl ingredients. 🤎🌪️
  4. Fill the Tins: Spoon the muffin batter into a lined muffin tin. Drop a small spoonful of the cinnamon mix into each one and use a toothpick to swirl it into the top as seen in the photo! 🌀🧁📐
  5. Bake to Perfection: Bake at 350°F for 15–18 minutes. Your kitchen will smell like a professional bakery! ⏲️📈🔥
  6. The Glaze Drizzle: Let the muffins cool for a few minutes. Whisk up your glaze and drizzle it generously over the tops for that authentic cinnamon roll look! 🥄☁️🤤
  7. Serve: Enjoy warm for the softest texture, just like the center of a fresh roll! 🍽️😋🧤✨

🔥 Pro Tips:

  • The “Fluff” Secret: Don’t overmix the batter once you add the wet ingredients! A light touch ensures your muffins stay airy and soft rather than dense. 🌬️🛡️💎
  • The “Glaze” Hack: For an extra protein boost, mix a little vanilla protein powder into your glaze instead of just using powdered sweetener! 🍦🎯✨
