Valentine’s Protein Cupcakes

Ingredients

Ingredients for Cupcakes (makes 12):

75g Flex Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (or protein of your choice) Code “FDL” saves you 15% on proteincookiebutter.com 

50g All Purpose Flour

36g Coconut Flour

10g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice

12g Baking Powder

30g Sprinkles

275g Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt

275g Egg Whites

100g Unsweetened Apple Sauce

 

Ingredients for Protein Frosting (for all 12 cupcakes):

60g Flex Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (or protein of your choice) Code “FDL” saves you 15% on proteincookiebutter.com 

20g Coconut Flour

16g Sugar Free/Fat Free White Chocolate Pudding Mix (optional)

6g Zero Cal Sweetener of your Choice

150g Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt

Directions

1.) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all of the dry ingredients in one bowl (except for the sprinkles) and all of the wet ingredients in another to avoid clumping. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet, then add in the sprinkles. Place the bowl in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to help thicken up the batter. 

2.) Spray the cupcake molds (https://amzn.to/2Cyj6rz) with nonstick butter spray, then fill each one up with batter. Place them in the oven for 12-15 minutes. When the tops start to crackle and golden, they’re done. 

3.) When the cupcakes are done, place them on a cooling rack to cool to room temperature. While they’re cooling, mix all of the dry protein frosting ingredients together in a bowl. Add in a little water and mix some more until you get a thick, frosting-like consistency. Mix in the greek yogurt, then put it in the fridge to chill and thicken. 

4.) Add the frosting on top and enjoy every bite!
