What’s better than regular muffins? STUFFED MUFFINS!!!
You know I’ve been a big fan of stuffing muffins with all sorts of goodness in the past (hello, Peanut Butter and Jelly Muffins!), and recently I was inspired to make a NEW stuffed muffin recipe thanks to my favorite vegan protein bars. 
Specifically…the new DIPPED bars from No Cow. They’re the perfect high protein snack when I’m craving something sweet n’ salty…just like the muffin recipe you’re getting today!NEW No Cow DIPPED Chocolate Vegan Protein Bars
Recently, No Cow released new DIPPED versions of their original protein bars and I AM OBSESSED. I already loved the original bars, but the rich chocolate outer layer that the dipped bars have takes them up to a whole new level of deliciousness. The new Dipped Bars come in 6 amazing flavors including:- Chocolate Coconut Almond
- Chocolate Sea Salt
- Chocolate Salted Caramel
- Chocolate Mint Cookie
- Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup
- Chocolate Sprinkled Donut
They are all so delicious. Perfect for eating on their own or including in a recipe like the A M A Z I N G stuffed vegan muffins I am sharing today.

I love salted caramel anything!! Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner party. Hope your week is fantastic!
I’m glad that the recipe serving is just for 4. I stopped baking lately because, there are only a few of us living in this house, and there are too many leftovers after baking.
I’ve never tried stuffed muffins before but this looks absolutely amazing! Can’t wait to try it.
