FAQs

Q: Can I use regular milk instead of blueberry-flavored protein milk?
A: Yes. Use regular milk or a protein milk of another flavor, but the blueberry milk adds extra taste.

Q: Can I add protein powder to the mix?
A: You can add a small scoop of unflavored or vanilla protein powder, but this may change the batter thickness. Add a little extra milk if needed.

Q: Do I need to thaw frozen blueberries first?
A: No. Use them frozen to keep the batter from turning too blue and to help the berries keep their shape.

Q: How do I know when the muffins are done?
A: Insert a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs, not wet batter.

Q: Can I make mini muffins with this mix?
A: Yes. Bake for less time—check often after two-thirds of the listed time.
