This recipe is dedicated to Melody, who lovingly demanded that I post it. Love you girl!! ;)

As soon as I got my hands on the new Tone It Up Peanut Butter protein, I was immediately transported to all of my favorite PB combos. But the first that came to mind was a good old fashioned PB&J.

These mini muffins are a PB&J without the J spilling out of the bread and onto your shirt... wait... is it just me that has that problem?? Silver lining is that the bad boys are packed with protein, are free of refined sugar, and are gluten free!

Hope you enjoy!
