Berries & Cream Protein Rich Muffins!

So I saw a recipe for some 'strawberry shortcake muffins' that looked

good, but I knew I could improve upon it and tweak it to my 'needs'!

 

These muffins are super tasty, low in carbs & calories, high in protein, and flour free!  They have some old fashioned oats & berries in them so they are full of good carbs.  These would make a perfect breakfast (I'd eat two of them for breakfast) or a great snack!!  You could even have them for dessert and top them with a little vanilla icecream or cool whip (sugar free or fat free if you like!).

 

You'll need:

1 1/4 cup old fashioned oats

3 scoops vanilla protein powder (I used Body Fortress)

2 large eggs

1 cup plain greek yogurt

1-2 tsp stevia (to taste)

2tsp reduced sodium baking powder

1/4 cup water

1 1/2 cups mixed berries (I used Wyman's triple berry blend w/ blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries)

 

Preheat oven to 400.

Line muffin tin with paper liners - spray with baking spray (to allow them to be removed from the muffins more easily)

In a blender combine all ingredients (except for berries).  Blend until a batter is formed.

Pour into bowl, fold in berries.

Divide into 12 muffin cups.

Bake 20-25 minutes.
