Step-by-Step Instructions for Homemade Blueberry Protein Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 360°F (180°C). Gather all your ingredients and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, crack the egg and add the honey, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and olive oil. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gently add the flour, protein powder, baking powder, and baking soda to the wet mixture. Fold until combined, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Toss the blueberries in a touch of flour before adding to the batter, then gently fold them in.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking for doneness around 18 minutes with a toothpick.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
