Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 cup smooth and runny peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup almond milk or any milk of your choice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup golden monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 cup lupin flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt if peanut butter is unsalted
  • 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Silicone spatula
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, peanut butter, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lupin flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Add the golden monk fruit sweetener and chocolate chips. Fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.
  6. Using a scoop or spoon, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your muffins warm or at room temperature!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze muffins individually wrapped for up to 3 months.
  • Substitute lupin flour with almond or whole wheat flour, but note texture changes.
