pumpkin streusel protein muffins
growing up, pumpkin chocolate chip muffins were the epitome of fall time 🍂🧁 but i’d never made a gluten-free, high-protein, and sugar-free version… until now 👀
oh & you are getting 2 delicious streusel variations:
streusel 1 features walnuts + dark chocolate chips
streusel 2 features pistachios + cacao nibs + miso (aka the perfect umami touch!)
they’re gluten-free, protein-packed, & just delish!
