Description
These High Protein Kodiak Cake Muffins are the kind of easy recipe that makes busy mornings feel so much easier. Soft, moist, and packed with cozy banana and chocolate chip flavor, they work beautifully as a quick breakfast, healthy snack, meal prep idea, or post-workout bite. I love that they come together with simple ingredients and bake into fluffy muffins that feel homemade, filling, and perfect for everyday breakfast ideas, easy food ideas, and family-friendly recipes.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes mix
2 ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease the cups well.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth.
3. Add the eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, then whisk until fully combined.
4. Stir in the Kodiak Cakes mix, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt just until no dry spots remain.
5. Fold in the mini chocolate chips, saving a small handful for topping if desired.
6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
7. Sprinkle the tops with the reserved chocolate chips.
8. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
9. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter once the dry ingredients go in, or the muffins can turn dense instead of soft and fluffy.
