Question: What can you can make in your muffin tins that won’t give you a muffin top? Answer: Breakfast and dessert!
Let’s start with dessert. Bring on the….
Protein Peanut Butter Cups
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1T natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup water
Stir. Spoon into lightly sprayed mini muffin tins. Pop in the freezer until solid. Makes 4 peanut butter cups.
If you saved room for breakfast, here’s another simple recipe for you…
Egg No-McMuffin Tops
- 6-8 eggs
- Veggies
- Lean meat (totally optional and already cooked)
- Cheese
- Salt and pepper
Whisk the eggs. Mix in your favorite vegetables, meat, and cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. Pour into prepared muffin tins. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Makes 6 crustless quiches.
These two recipes have a lot in common:
- Both are quick and easy to prepare
- Both are made in muffin tins
- Both are packed with protein
- And, both go great with a cup of coffee!
Now, go make yourself a drink and enjoy your breakfast and dessert of champions.

September 13th 2009The egg ones are great in mini muffin tins for wee ones. Well, wee ones that aren’t picky, mine would only eat it if I covered it in buttercream frosting and sprinkles.
