Keto Peanut Butter Muffins with Chocolate Frosting

I had friends that I met on my keto trip to Greece come to visit us in Maui. Vito is a chef so he cooked for us but I wanted to have a delicious dessert for them to enjoy after his meal. I make my keto peanut butter cupcakes and they absolutely loved them!

HOW TO MAKE KETO PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES

To make my keto peanut butter cupcakes, I used peanut butter Equip Prime Protein powder!

I love Equip Prime Protein powder so much, I even pack a bag and an immersion blender with me when I travel! I am in LOVE with it!

It works great for making recipes like my protein-packed keto peanut butter cupcakes. I used the peanut butter Equip. The peanut butter Prime Protein powder is an all-natural, comes from 100% grass-fed beef protein powder with only only 3 ingredients: beef, peanut butter flour powder, salt, and stevia. No fillers, no additives, no chemicals and it is so delicious!

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY

During the middle of Covid I said enough was enough and that I was going to get a handle on my weight! My sons were being picked on about how fat their mom was. I had a good cry and told myself it’s time to make a change.

My starting weight was embarrassingly to say 465. I am now down to 262!

I still have a ways to go but what a difference it is!! I have way more energy!

Thanks for all the fun recipes and ways to make me feel like I’m not missing out!!! Thank you immensely! I hope you have a Merry Christmas/ Happy holidays!!” – Heidi
