November is National Peanut Butter Lover's Month. Here are some of my favorite weight loss surgery friendly ways to celebrate.
Regular Peanut Butter is high in fat and should be consumed in moderation. Powdered Peanut Butter is a nice alternative... all the peanut taste & protein but waaaay lower in fat (brands: PB2 Chike PBFit, etc. watch added sugars)
Shelly's Peanut Butter Protein Mini Muffins
1 Egg, beaten
3 Tablespoons Milk
2 Tablespoons Sugar Free Vanilla Torani Syrup
1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
3 Tablespoons Multigrain Pancake Mix
2 Tablespoons Powdered Peanut Butter (aka Peanut Flour)
1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
Pinch salt
Optional: SF Strawberry or Grape Jelly
Mix egg, milk, syrup and oil and combine thoroughly. In a separate bowl, mix pancake mix, peanut flour, protein powder and salt. Tip dry into wet and stir till combined. Pour batter into a non stick mini muffin pan that has been sprayed with Pam.
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes until knife comes out clean.
Slice open and serve with a smear of SF Jelly. Soooo good.
These make a great on-the-go breakfast or I take a couple in a snack sized Ziploc baggie and bring them whenever I go for coffee... while my friends are getting something full of calories, fat, sugar and carbs from the bakery case I get to enjoy too.
