FAQs
Q: Can I use frozen blueberries?
A: Yes. Use them frozen and fold them in without thawing. This helps keep the batter from turning blue.
Q: What type of protein powder works best?
A: Use a mild-tasting protein powder like whey or a neutral plant protein. Strong flavors can change the muffin taste.
Q: Can I make these muffins gluten-free?
A: You can try gluten-free flour, but texture may change. Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour mix for best results.
Q: How do I make these less sweet?
