This is a very versatile recipe. While I enjoy muffins with jam (and butter!) sometimes I need something fast that I can just grab and go without worrying about having jam dripping onto my shirt or some other place. Add a tablespoon of Blueberry Refrigerator Jam with the egg or simply add a few whole fresh blueberries before microwaving and you are literally out the door in 2 minutes!

Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 tsp olive oil
- ½ tsp vanilla (optional)
- 1 tsp xylitol
- 2 tbsp chia meal
- 2 tbsp unsweetened protein powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt
Instructions
- Whisk the egg, coconut milk, olive oil, vanilla and xylitol in a microwave safe coffee cup.
- Add the chia meal (blend 2 tbsp seeds in a blender to make the meal), protein powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Stir until fully blended and thick.
- Microwave for 1 minute. You will see the muffin rise to the top of the mug but it will collapse towards the end and stay below the rim. Remove from the mug by tapping upside onto a plate. Sometimes it may stick so use a knife to gently go around the outside edges of the muffin where it may be sticking to the mug.
- Slice and enjoy immediately. Delicious with a tablespoon of unsweetened jam, cream cheese or both!
