    Maple Frosting + Bacon:

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F, line 10 cups of a muffin pan with cupcake lines, and lightly spray insides with cooking spray (or use non-stick pan).

    2. In a bowl, whisk flour, maple protein powder, baking powder and baking soda.

    3. In a large bowl, whisk together milk, Greek yogurt, applesauce and melted butter.

    4. Add dry mix to wet, and gently fold until combined.

      DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cupcakes gummy.

    5. Divide batter among cupcake cavities filling ¾ way to the top.

      Smoothen tops with back of spoon or small spatula.

    6. Bake for 18-20 minutes. A toothpick inserted into center comes out dry.

    7. Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pan.

      Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
