Nutritional Info:

NOTES:

• The collagen powder is optional but strongly encouraged for extra protein and added health benefits

• You can replace the collagen power with a bone broth protein powder

• You can use 2 tbsps maple syrup or honey as sweetener, instead of Stevia. I like to keep my recipes as low in sugar as I can, for better blood sugar balance.

• Store in the fridge, in airtight container, for 3-4 days or freeze them

• Please note that if you replace the egg with something else, the consistency will change. But they will still turn out great. The photo below shows a muffin using egg replacement.
