性生活视频 — notes only
Pumpkin: Canned puree (not pie filling) for moisture and fiber.
Flours: GF oat flour + almond flour = soft crumb that isn’t dry.
Protein powder: Pumpkin-spice or vanilla, plant-based to keep dairy-free.
Eggs (or flax eggs): Structure and lift; flax eggs keep it DF/GF/plant-forward.
Sweetener: Maple syrup or coconut sugar—balanced, not overly sweet.
Fat: Avocado or melted coconut oil for moistness.
Warm spices: Cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, pinch clove or allspice.
Mix-ins: Dairy-free chocolate chips, pepitas, or chopped nuts.
Step-by-Step (6–8 steps)
- Prep (5 min): Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with parchment liners; lightly mist.

- Add dry (1–2 min): Whisk in oat flour, almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, spices until just combined.

FAQs
Which protein works best? Plant proteins (pea/brown rice blends) keep it dairy-free; use pumpkin-spice or vanilla.
Can I use whey? Yes, but then it’s not dairy-free; add 2–3 Tbsp extra oat flour (whey bakes softer).
How do I make them egg-free? Use 2 flax eggs (2 Tbsp ground flax + 5 Tbsp water, rest 5 min).
Can I add more protein? Yes—add 2 Tbsp additional protein powder and 1–2 Tbsp almond milk.
