Lemon Blueberry Muffins
Yeilds 9 muffins
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/4 cups vanilla whey protein powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
- 1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 3 ounces cream cheese, cut into 9 small cubes
- non-stick spray or paper muffin liners
Method:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 9 muffin tins with paper
liners or spray with non-stick spray. Combine the eggs, oil, and cream; stir to
blend. Add the whey powder, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, lemon rind, and
orange rind.
- Stir until just combined. Do not over stir or muffins will
be tough. Fold in the blueberries gently.

cube of cream cheese in the center of each. Fill with remaining batter, making
sure batter goes completely over and around the cubes of cream cheese.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, or until muffins
spring back to the touch and no longer look moist on top. Serve warm.
