Berry Protein Muffins

Ingredients
3 scoops protein powder
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup stevia (natural sweetener)
1 tbls baking powder
2 eggs
1/2 cup tinned apples (unsweetened)
3/4 cup natural greek yoghurt (low fat)
1 cup light soy milk
1 tsp vanilla essence 
1/2 cup fresh or frozen berries thawed and drained

Preheat oven to 180deg. Place oats in a blender/food processor blitz until the oats become flour, place into a large mixing bowl, then add all other dry ingredients to the flour. Now in the blender/food processor add all wet ingredients (except the berrys) , apple, yoghurt, eggs, milk, vanilla essence and blitz. Combine wet ingredients to the dry mixing well, fill your muffin cases then drop berrys into each muffin . I added some coconut to the tops of mine, you can add oats or nuts as well if you like. Bake in the oven 17-20 min. Makes 12 large muffins.

Note: these need to be stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
