Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Cupcakes

If you didn’t think National Cupcake Day could get any better, then you haven’t tried our decadent (but still kind of healthy, I promise!) Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Cupcakes recipe. These ooey gooey cupcakes pack an unexpected protein punch when you include our Chocolate Whey Protein Powder. Give them a whirl for a treat you can guiltlessly tout to friends and family on this, the sweetest day of the year!

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
2. Combine all the ingredients except the peanut butter in a food processor.
3. Divide the mixture between nine cups in a cupcake tin. Then pop a teaspoon of peanut butter in each and push it down so it is submerged.
4. Bake the cupcakes for around 10-15 minutes until they’re cooked through. They’re best eaten fresh from the oven. If you have any leftovers, microwave them later to re-melt the peanut butter center.

Pro Tip

No need to run out to the market for oat flour! The oat flour can be made by blending up oats in a food processor. It can also be substituted for brown rice flour or almond flour in other recipes.
