Because we love it as a beverage, why not in a muffin?! I created this recipe for Pumpkin Spice Latte Protein Muffins after receiving some new all-natural whey protein in Café Cream flavor, and after seeing some other pumpkin latte inspired recipes online. Another easy, delicious, high-protein recipe!
I love trying new protein powders, and I was excited to see the Vitamin Shoppe‘s new NutriWhey line of natural whey proteins! I’ve been drinking lots of coffee lately (way too much, really!) and couldn’t resist trying the Café Cream flavor. It has roasted coffee beans in it. So good!
My next recipe with this Café Cream whey is going to be something tiramisu, like Tiramisu Protein Truffles! I already wrote a recipe for a high-protein Tiramisu dessert, and that can be found in my Bake for the Cause recipe ebook to benefit cancer research. (That recipe alone is worth the $10 donation!) That was before I had this protein, and that recipe calls for vanilla whey and vanilla Warrior Blend.
