Scale
- 2 cups (180g) rolled oats
- 2 scoops (approx. 60g) vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup (150g) apple, finely diced
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or almond)
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a muffin tin.
- In a large bowl, mix oats, protein powder, cinnamon, and baking powder until well combined.
- Whisk in milk, eggs, and maple syrup until the wet ingredients are just combined with the dry.
- Gently fold in the diced apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each almost to the brim.
