What can I use to add extra protein to these Muffins?
To increase the protein content in these muffins you may substitute a 1/3 cup Kodiak Pancake mix for 1/3 cup (100-110 calorie) flavor protein powder ( I use Devotion Angel Food Cake)
Adding the protein will promote satiety and makes these the perfect, portable snack!
The protein powder I love and recommend is Devotion Nutrition Angel Food Cake Protein Powder.
It’s gluten-free, ONE Smartpoint on all 3 WW plans, and has 20 grams of protein for just 1 scoop!

Ingredients:
- 1 and 1/3 cup Kodiak Cakes buttermilk flapjack pancake mix
- 3/4 cup canned pumpkin purée
- 1 large egg or 2 large egg whites
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup cup water ( give or take depending on the batter consistency)
- 1 tsp pumpkin spice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 3 Tbsp sugar substitute ( I use Lakanto Monkfruit Classic)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 60 Lily’s no sugar added chocolate chips or any sugar free chocolate chips ( about 5 chips per muffin)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and using a muffin tin, line a full size muffin tin with 12 liners
- In a medium bowl add pumpkin purée, egg, water, extract, and sugar substitute. Stir well.
- In a separate bowl combine kodiak pancake mix, pumpkin spice, cinnamon. baking powder.
- Add dry ingredients into the wet slowly as you stir. Stir just until combined. Then fold in 1/2 of the no sugar added chocolate chips.
Pour into muffin foil liners ( or spray the muffin tin with non stick cooking spray). Add the remaining (no sugar added) chocolate chips on top of each muffin. - Bake for 15-18 minutes or until an inserted knife or toothpick comes out clean.
Servings: Makes 12 full size muffins
GREEN: 1 SmartPoint for 1 muffin or 2 servings for 3 Smart Points if using egg whites or 2 SmartPoints per muffin if using 1 whole egg
BLUE: 1 SmartPoint for muffin or 3 SmartPoints for 2 servings
PURPLE: 1 SmartPoint for muffin or 3 SmartPoints for 2 servings
Tips:
- I recommend using either foil muffin liners or spraying the muffin tin with non stick cooking spray. The paper muffin liners tend to stick to the batter.
- Store in an airtight container.
- The Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener (sugar substitute) that is used in this recipe is zero points. Please keep in mind-the point value can vary depending on the brand of sugar substitute you choose to use. Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener also has a 1:1 ratio to real sugar. If you use a different sugar substitute you will want to use the equivalent to real sugar that is recommended on back of the sugar substitute package.

Sorry, I just saw that. I’ve updated that. Thank you so much
Do you happen to have the calorie data for the muffins? Just baked them and cannot wait to try! Thanks
Thanks, I found it.
Would it still be 1 point if I omit the chocolate chips? I’m not a chocolate chip fan but love pumpkin muffins. Thanks
Love these ! So moist! Thanks for all your recipes! Cindy
Can you do these without the protein powder?
Yes, you can omit the protein powder and add an additional 1/4 cup Kodiak Cake Pancake Mix
I’ve tried protein powder muffins in the past and really don’t like them. Does the protein powder have that “protein powder” consistency?
Hi Nicole,
I know exactly what you are referring to-the Devotion protein powder does not have that. It’s texture is more like a cake mix or pancake mix.
Hope that helps. Thank you!
Do you think it would taste okay with the dark chocolate Kodiak mix?
Yes! I bet that would be very delicious!
Could I substitute the protein powder for the kodiak mix?
Hi Gina! Yes-you can omit the protein powder if you don’t care for the extra protein and use an additional 1/3 cup Kodiak cake mix.
I used Hershey’s sugar free chocolate chips and then realized that they’re 70 calories for 1 Tbsp compared to Lily’s 60 choc. Chips for 55 calories. I suggest checking the nutritional value first before buying sugar free choc. Chips. Unfortunately, each muffin in my batch is 2 smart points. It’s only 1 extra point but I look at it this way, I could have had 2 muffins instead of 1 ☹️
Just made these and they were pretty good! I didn’t have a sugar substitute so I used 1 tbspn regular sugar so it turned it to 2 point muffins. Definitely will make again!
Sometimes I just like a larger muffin, so if I make six muffins would that only be two points? If it’s not too much trouble when you post your muffins recipe could you put the points if you only make six their times and I will sacrifice points to get a larger muffin. Thank you for all you do to help us Weight Watchers on our weight-loss journey.
There are some great tips in here – loved this post
Hi from the DR
I just baked a batch of the Pumpkin Chocolate chip muffins, it looks great, just waiting for it to cool
Can’t wait to taste❣️
Is there anything to substitute for the protein powder? That brand has carrageenan which makes me sick. And angel food isn’t a common flavor! Thanks
Hi Sandy,
If you prefer not to use protein powder, you can omit it altogether and use 1/3 cup more of the Kodiak pancake mix. As stated in the note section.
Thanks so much,
Linds
I prefer no chocolate chips, will it be sweet enough with with only 3 TBS of monkfruit sweetener and no chocolate chips? Or does it really need the chocolate chips?
Hi Julie.
I usually use my Skinny Pumpkin Muffin recipe if I am not adding the chocolate chips. Heres the link for that recipe. https://thepounddropper.com/skinny-pumpkin-bread-or-muffins/
I do add more than Tbsp of sweetener in this recipe. Thank You
Do these need to be refrigerated?
Hi Jen,
These muffins can be stored in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days or they can be stored in the fridge for up to a week or freezer for up to a month.
I have made several of your recipes and have always been amazed how delicious they are. These are no different. Just absolutely delicious!! Thank you so much!
