Ingredients

1 ⅓ cups nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1 medium lemon, zested and juiced
¾ cup whole wheat flour
¾ cup pea protein powder
¼ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsweetened vanilla-flavored almond milk
1 cup fresh blueberries

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
Mix yogurt, butter, egg, egg white, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a medium bowl.
Mix flour, protein powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir to combine; mixture will be very thick. Stir in almond milk until mixture is smooth. Gently stir in fresh blueberries. Dollop batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin.
Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
