Method

1. Preheat the oven.
   
   Set to 180°C and line or lightly grease a muffin tray.

2. Mix the dry ingredients.
   
   In a large bowl, combine oats, protein powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.

3. Add the wet ingredients.
   
   Stir in the egg, chopped apple, almond milk and honey. Mix until evenly combined. The batter should be thick but scoopable.

4. Fold in extras (if using).
   
   Gently mix through dark chocolate chips or berries for a little surprise in every bite.

5. Spoon & top.
   
   Divide mixture evenly between muffin cases. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds or extra chocolate chips if desired.

6. Bake.
   
   Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch.

7. Finish & enjoy.
   
   Allow to cool slightly. Drizzle with a little extra honey if you like things on the sweeter side.

Serve warm. Or pack for later. Either way, they disappear quickly.
