Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, melt butter and cream cheese.

  • Combine and add eggs. Be careful not to cook the eggs from the heat of the butter.

  • In a separate bowl, mix protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon. Pour dry ingredients into wet; combine with a hand mixer until completely mixed. At first, the batter will look thin and too liquidy, but because of the xanthan gum in the protein powder, it will thicken up after a couple of minutes).

  • Stir in pecans.
    Processed With Vsco With G3 Preset
  • Pour into muffin baking tray and bake at 350 degrees for 22-26 minutes. (I have a convection oven and after 24 minutes they were golden brown.)

  • The final product are these gorgeous golden brown muffins! They smelled so delicious they didn’t last long enough for me to take the pictures, I had to dig in! (If you notice the size difference between the two muffins on the bottom left side and the rest it’s because they’re lacking baking powder/soda- I did a little experiment to see how important it really was and obviously it made a HUGE difference!)
