I am always looking for a pre-workout morning meal that is quick, packs some protein and has enough carbohydrates to keep my fueled the entire workout. These muffins do just that. I like to warm them up in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and then slather them in peanut butter. Protein on top of protein and tastes great.
