Egg White Banana Nut Bran Muffins

Posted on April 5, 2013 by emily

Ingredients for (6) Muffins:

  • 2 Scoops Whey Protein of Choice (I used unflavored as I didn’t want to take away from ANY of the banana flavor)
  • 1/2 medium banana (as discussed above, frozen and quickly thawed bananas seem to taste best but any ripe banana will do)
  • 1/2 cup Bob’s Red Mill Wheat Bran (not to be confused with Oat Bran)
  • 3/4 cup MuscleEgg Vanilla Egg Whites (gives the muffin a hint of vanilla and a sweet after taste) – Regular Liquid Egg Whites can be used as well.
  • 1/2 tsp Xanthum Gum (This natural powder acts as a binding agent in recipes that lack flour or yeast – found in most grocery stores now-a-days but to be safe check Whole Foods, Sprouts, or your health food store)
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 oz crush Shelled Walnuts
  • Preparation:
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
    2. Using a small muffin pan, either spray non-stick oil in muffin holes or better yet use muffin cups for easier removal and nicer presentation.
    3. Combine Whey Protein powder, 1/2 Banana, Wheat Bran, MuscleEgg Egg Whites, Xanthum Gum, Baking Powder in a blender or Bullet (if you have one)
    4. Quickly blend up ingredients insuring that the banana is liquified with the rest of the ingredients and not chunky. — this truly released the banana flavor.
    5. Using a mallet, meat tenderizer or your a coffee grinder quickly grind or smash walnuts until small crumbs are formed. – Add to the rest of the ingredients but save the larger pieces for the tops of the muffins.
    6. Pour batter evenly into (6) muffin cups – about halfway full
    7. Add larger pieces of walnuts to the top of the batter
    8. Bake for 12-15 minutes depending on the strength of your oven (begin to check on them at 10 minutes as they rise quickly.
    9. Remove and place on cooling rack
    10. Eat them warm with my favorite Walden Farms Pancake Syrup or your choice of sugar free syrup or jelly.
    11. Delish!

Organic Muscleegg Cocount Cake

Posted on March 18, 2013 by emily

Ingredients:

1.5 cups Organic 100% Liquid MuscleEgg Egg Whites (For even more flavor try Chocolate or Vanilla)
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
6 egg yolks
1 cup Organic Coconut Flour
½ cup melted Organic Coconut Oil
¾ teaspoon salt
1 cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 Cup Stevia or liquid stevia equivalent to 1-1/2 cups sugar – (Splenda can also be used)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon Organic coconut extract
4 tablespoons Unsweetened Reduced Fat Organic Shredded Coconut

Preparation:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
Use 1/2 tablespoon of Coconut Oil to create a non-stick barrier in your cake pan.
Pour egg whites into a mixing bowel and add cream of tartar. Begin to beat until egg whites form small peaks when wisp is removed from the mixture. (It should be foamy when ready) – Set aside for now.
In another mixing bowel beat your egg yolks (make sure these are yolks only – no whites so you’ll have to seperate by hand or use an egg seperator). Add all of your other ingredients and mix well.
Pour in 1/3 of your egg white/cream of tartar mixture and mix until liquid is no longer present.
Pour in 1/2 of your egg white mixture again and repeat above step.
Pour in your last remaining egg whites and mix well until a cake batter consistency has formed.
Fold in your cake batter into your Coconut Oiled Cake Pan and smooth your top with a spatula.
Bake for 35-40 minutes checking at 35 minutes. The top of the cake should just slightly begin to brown. To test if it’s ready insert a knife or tooth pic into the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
Remove cake, and let stand for 15 minutes on a cooling rack (something that allows air to pass beneath it)
Using a knife begin to slowly cut around the edges of the cake if it has not begin to pull away from the cake pan.
Place a large plate or the cooling rack on the top of your cake and flip upside down transferring the cake onto your surface (upside down)
Top with Whipped cream, frosting and shaved coconut and whatever fruit you desire.
Delish!

  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract (Optional but gives more of an intense Vanilla Flavor if not using just regular egg whites)

Sweet Potato Pancakes with Egg Whites

Posted on February 19, 2013 by emily
Sweet Potato MuscleEgg Protein Pancake

Ingredients:

  • 7oz Mashed Sweet Potato (Skin, cook, mash)
  • 1 Scoop Whey Protein (Optional — My recipe did not have Whey but this can add flavor)
  • 3 MuscleEgg Vanilla Flavored Egg Whites (If you’re not using Whey Protein – increase to 6 Egg Whites) – 100% liquid whites or eggs can be substituted however once you go MuscleEgg, you’ll never buy regular eggs again;)
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda or Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Nutmeg
  • A dash of ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp of Cinnamon (do not leave this out)

Preparation:

  1. Turn stove burner on medium heat using a pancake skillet or regular sized pan. — pancake skillets are cheap and an excellent investment if you make these daily like me =)
  2. Peel or skin your sweet potatoes. Since you aren’t cooking with the skin on there isn’t a need to aerate your potato with a fork. I usually cook up to (2) potatoes at a time in the microwave for 5 minutes.
  3. Weigh out your sweet potatoes to meet your desired macros (7 oz = 40 grams of carbs)
  4. Use a muddle, potato masher or a spoon to mash up your potatoes in a mixing bowl. Make sure there aren’t any chunks. **For best results use a food processor or Vitamix/Blender to mix all ingredients together for the best possible pancake batter.
  5. Combine all other ingredients into your mixing bowl and mix together into your pancake batter.
  6. Spray your pan with non-stick spray or coconut oil (healthier fat over olive oil or canola)
  7. Make 6″ round circles by pouring the mixture slowly into the center of your pan.
  8. Walk away for a few minutes and flip when the mixture no longer is runny on the top and it begins to slightly bubble around the edges.
  9. Cook your other side for 2-3 minutes, remove and repeat with the remaining batter.
  10. Add your favorite spices, sugar free jelly, sugar free syrup, fruit, PB2, Almond/Peanut butter or whatever you fancy =)
  11. Enjoy a delicious, nutritious muscle building pancake that tastes like dessert.
