After much fine tuning I have finally got this down perfect.

Preheat oven to 350°

Medium mixing bowl combine following ingredients:

3 scoops Select Gourmet Vanilla
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup baking stevia
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup almond milk (I use sweetened)
1/4 cup honey
1 egg
1/4 cup mashed sweet potatoes (I used canned yams and mash them)
1/4 cup Greek Yoghurt (I use Triple Zero Original)
2 tbsp favorite nut butter (I use Nutella)

Mix together with spoon. I do not use a mixer. Use a muffin pan and spray with baking spray. Spoon in evenly and put in oven for 20 min.

I love these muffins and the family each eats one a day for tea break.

Use a spread on top optional of your calories allow it.
 
Man that sounds great.
I might only do a single mod if I tried it (honey swapped for Waldens syrup, to drop the cals/sugars)

I'd also double up that cinnamon because it's the bomb with sweet potatoes.

Great recipe sir :)
Density looks A+ and you got 3 scoops of whey in, reps
 
I haven't thought about adding more cinnamon. Originally I did it with syrup but I didn't like the flavor. Honey didn't really add a significant amount of calories but really improved the taste.

Totally fair, the macros as they are should be feasible on almost any diet to add in anyways.

Super fancy brother
 
Using our new Buttermilk Pancake Myofeed to make pancakes, or even better, waffles is amazing. I use Kodiak Protein Packed Pancake mix and you can dump a scoop or even 2 in and stuffs awesome. My non-supplement taking wife loves them. And she's particular. Great way to get a big protein punch.

I like it. What would it do to the texture if you added another scoop of protein and took out an equal amount of flour to up the protein count?

Not Driven, but in my experience, any time I have added more protein powder in lieu of flour, the finished product comes out much more dry.

This...
Protein powder is very dry. You will need to offset it with an equal amount of wet ingredients to get the proper consistency/texture.

You can often rectify it by adding a moistener, but the more you do this the more you are messing with the texture.

As this is, it is a semi-dense muffin texture,

If i added another scoop and some GY, it would start to get rubbery. If I was aiming for a leaner overall recipe I would add something in to fix that texture, like blend in some seeds/chia/flax so it regains some texture.

Or even psyllium husk for super low cal + fibre, I use this in low carb mixes for myself
 
Dylan or Bob, do either of you guys need a roommate or perhaps a live in butler? I'm a pretty easy going guy to get along with, and can make one hell of a mean omelet.

Thank you for the kind words :)

Another stellar looking recipe Dylan!

Do you by chance ever weight the ingredients by mass on a scale instead of dry measure?

Looking to make a few of your recipes, but was hoping to use the gram equivalents if possible.
 
I keep meaning to write those up as well but keep doing it while in a rush, or I forget.

Online converters are easy to use, or if you let me know which recipe you wanted to try I can hook it up.

If you have a recipe request I will make it happen and list it all by mass ;)

First one is the cinnamon roll recipe! I have a never ending obsession ver since I was a kid with those things.

I'll think of some others and PM you.

Thanks again!
 
Ok so I just baked a relatively basic chocolate/cherry cheesecake but I winged a new swirl pattern idea and thought I would share it for anyone interested.

Start with zig-zagged chocolate syrup on top of your batter,

Then rake the surface in one direction with a fork,

Then hold your fork at one angle only (don't turn it with the curves) and draw a spiral from the centre outwards.

I will share the recipe tomorrow, baked it for my sister's 24th Bday
