Makes 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 300g sweet potato (peeled and cubed)
- 125g All-Natural Peanut Butter (Smooth)
- 2 tbsp. maple syrup
- 2 scoops Impact Whey Protein (Vanilla)
- 25g high-quality cocoa powder
- ½ tsp. baking powder
- Chocolate chips (optional)
Method
- Preheat your oven to 175°C/350°F and boil a saucepan of water.
- Steam the cubes of sweet potato over your saucepan of boiling water for 10-15 minutes or until soft enough for a fork to easily pierce.
- Then transfer your sweet potato into a food processor or blender, along with the peanut butter, maple syrup, whey protein, cocoa powder, and baking powder, and blitz until smooth. If your mixture doesn’t blend easily, add a small amount of milk to loosen it up.
- Carefully pour or spoon the batter into 12 muffin cases in a muffin tray and top each one with a few chocolate chips.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when poked into your muffins.
- Leave to cool for a few minutes before eating — then enjoy!
