Protein Peanut Butter Mini Muffins are the perfect breakfast on the go. They have hidden protein and the classic Peanut butter and Chocolate combo that everyone loves. It’s officially summer and at my house and that means a busy schedule for my teenage boys. Summer time means camps and training for the activities they do year round. To make things a little crazier my oldest son got a job as a lifeguard at a local water park that keeps him busy on top of his normal schedule . I leave for work at 5:45AM everyday so I don’t have time to cook my kids breakfast .  I was trying to come up with a way to get a little protein in their diet in the mornings. Move over cereal and pop tarts we have protein packed muffins.

Let’s Make Protein Peanut Butter Mini Muffins!

These are super simple to make and I started them off with a protein pancake mix , any brand would do. Adding Greek yogurt and peanut butter not only adds flavor it adds more protein. My kids love chocolate chip pancakes and muffins so adding them was a little bonus for them but they are only optional. While these are not a substitute for eggs and bacon they are a good option when in a hurry . These are like any other muffins and basically whip all the ingredients together and then fold in the chocolate chips.  After spraying a mini muffin pan spoon the mixture into muffin wells. Bake in a preheated oven for eight to ten minutes.

These look Fantastic!
Just wondering how many mini muffins this recipe makes; more than 24 as shown in your photo above?
Also can I use all-purpose flour in place of the pancake mix?
Thank you & enjoy your day – as Today Is A Good Day To Have A Good Day.

I made these following the recipe, except for the chocolate chips because I didn’t have any. Great peanut butter taste and easy to make. They are delicious, I ate 4 while the second batch baked. I got 48 mini muffins. Do you have any nutritional info and serving size? Thanks for a great recipe.
