Chocolate Beet Muffins
- Makes 12 Servings
- Active time: 10 minutes
- Total time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
-
1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour, such as Flourish
-
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-
2 tablespoons flaxseeds, ground
-
1 heaping tablespoon vanilla protein powder
-
¾ cup sugar
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
2 eggs
-
½ cup roasted beets
-
5 ounces Greek yogurt, plain
-
½ cup milk
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 350oF with a rack in the center position. Spray or line the muffin tins.
In a bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa, flaxseeds, protein powder, sugar, baking powder and salt. Place the oil, eggs, beets, yogurt, and milk in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into the flour mixture and whisk until thoroughly combined. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin tins (about 1/3 cup per muffin).
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out with only a few crumbs on it. Cool before serving. Leftovers can be stored in the freezer, wrapped in plastic, for up to a month. Simply leave out at room temperature the night before.
