I’m obsessed with these Oatmeal & Whey Protein Muffins. They’re heavenly good and packed with so much fiber & protein that one of these should keep you going until lunch.

And the best part about them? NO, sugar, butter, or flour. Oh, and they’re less than 150 cals per muffin . Guilt free indulgence.

2.5 cups old fashioned oats

1 cup plain low fat greek yogurt

2 eggs

1/2 cup honey

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

2 TBSP ground flax seed

1/4 cup dried cranberries

3 heaping Tbsp Unflavored Whey Protein

2. Place the oats in the food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds. Add remaining ingredients to the food processor.

Muffiniarnia– Wroclaw Sweets & Treats

Posted on February 6, 2013 by Romina Moradi

I officially found the cutest and most “pink” cupcake store ever. It’s located just on the outskirts of Rynek (Szewska 27) . It’s called Muffiniarnia—and they specialize in custom cakes, muffins, cupcakes , milkshakes & caffee lattes of all sorts. The interior decor screams Hello Kitty—it’s basically every girls dream dessert place.

Their cupcakes aren’t of your ordinary expectance — they range from Kinder Beuno to Coconut Raefello. They are exactly what your cheat day is craving for.

I haven’t had a chance to try their caffee lattes yet– but I can give you a confident thumbs up on their cupcakes, muffins, and milkshakes (I tried the Oreo one and it was amazing!).

Just stop whatever you’re doing and go and get a cupcake. Indulge guiltlessly . You earned this .
