Blender muffins are a fan favorite around here. They are super easy to make – mix all of the ingredients in a blender, bake and enjoy. Take a look at some of our other blender muffin (and bread) recipes here.
Not only are these blenders a tasty, well-rounded snack, but they also pack a protein punch. As runners, we need to make sure that we are nailing our daily protein needs, and these muffins make it easy. Grab 2 of these for breakfast <with some extra carbs and/or protein, depending on your individual needs> or one of these would make a great snack.
I love the combination of peanut butter powder + peanut butter to kick up the peanutty flavor while adding additional protein and healthy fats. Feel free to add some chocolate chips on top, because we all know that’s never a bad idea. Blender muffins keep great in the freezer, so you can pull them out and pop them in the microwave as an addition to any meal or snack.

Thanks for sharing! 🙌 The amount of powder per scoop can vary across brands – how many grams of protein are there per scoop in the powder you used?

What kind of oats do you recommend for this recipe?
Quick oats!
I’m definitely trying these! Is your preference for quick oats or old-fashioned oats? Also, do you have a preference for Greek yogurt as far as low vs full fat? Thanks!
I usually use quick oats, and I typically use low fat or non-fat, as we add healthy fat from the pb in many recipes!
Is there an alternative to the yogurt to make it dairy free that you would recommend?
A soy yogurt would be the closest equivalent.
Kite hill makes a Greek style yogurt that is dairy free! 17g of protein per serving
Great intel! Thanks for sharing.
These are so tasty! How many muffins should this make? (I dropped the recipe in an online calorie tracker and the numbers were way off).
This makes 12
These are my favorite of your many varieties, thank you for making one with extra protein. I assume they’re supposed to yield 12 standard muffins, is that right? I may have added a little more banana and it made a dozen plus a micro loaf (basically one extra muffin) — so are the macros listed for a standard muffin or for a mini size?
