1½TbspUnflavored Protein Powder, 8g, see post for sub
2tspUnsweetened Cocoa Powder
¼tspBaking Powder

Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F, line 1 cup of a muffin pan with cupcake liner, and lightly spray insides with cooking spray (or use non-stick pan).
In a large bowl, whisk together whole wheat pastry flour, chocolate protein powder, unflavored protein powder, cocoa powder and baking powder.
In another bowl stir together milk, Greek yogurt and coconut oil.
Add wet mix to dry; Stir to combine.Don’t over-mix or muffin will be dense.Batter should be fairly thick; Taste and see if it needs more sweetener; Add stevia powder if it does.
Pour batter into muffin cup, sprinkle optional chocolate chips.
Bake for 5 minutes.Then reduce temperature to 350°F (leaving muffin in oven) and bake another 15 minutes (total 20 minutes).A toothpick inserted into center should come out dry.
Cool for 5 minutes, then remove from pan. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 10 minutes, and enjoy.
Notes
Taste the batter and see if you need some extra sweetener; I’d recommend stevia if needed.
