    hello april,
    - i’ve come across your blog a few times now,
    and am finding myself increasingly excited about it.
    the soy protein powder in this recipe – does it taste funny in a muffin?
    is soy protein flour at all subsitutable?
    thanks.

    Hi Michelle, thanks! Can’t taste the soy protein powder at all- I get the unflavored so it works just like flour. But you could use any type of flour to replace it!
