INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour  or all-purpose flour
1 scoop protein powder I used Devotion Nutrition Angel Food Cake Protein Powder, can use vanilla or unflavored as well
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup fresh cranberries
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt can use plain as well
1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk or whatever milk you prefer
1/4 cup maple syrup can use honey as well
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
Orange zest, optional
INSTRUCTIONS
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Then, line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Then, mix together all the dry ingredients first. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
Add in the protein powder. 
Set aside the dry ingredients and prepare the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
Start by whisking the two eggs together slightly. Then, add in the Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, olive oil, and vanilla extract.
Stir until everything is well incorporated. Now, combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Using a spatula, mix together until everything is combined, but do not over mix. Gently fold in the cranberries and add in the orange zest, if using.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin tin. Bake in preheated oven for 18-22 minutes.
Cool in muffin tin for about 5 minutes before transferring muffins onto wire racks to cool completely to room temperature. Enjoy!

Best Artificial Christmas Trees

If you know me, then you know I am a tad bit Christmas obsessed. And I literally put up a Christmas tree in every room in my house. So I’d like to say, I know a thing or two about artificial Christmas trees. I figured I’d share the best artificial Christmas trees with you all today too.

That way, if you’re needing a new Christmas tree, I can help guide you to the very best ones around! In our house, we have several different kinds of Christmas trees, so I will be highlighting all the different brands and what I like about each one.

That way you can decide which tree would be the best fit in your home too.

Gold Christmas Trees

This post also contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission off anything you purchase through here, at no additional cost to you. Please read my full Disclosure policy for more details.

King of Christmas

I will say, most of our trees are from King of Christmas and they always are on point! I’ve had a King of Christmas tree for several years now and they have stood the test of time.

Not only are they beautiful, but easy to put together too. The first one I ever got was my office Christmas tree. This one is a beautiful 6′ Prince Flock Tree and it’s the perfect size for my office.

I usually decorate this one with all my vintage Shiny Brite ornaments too. Our main Christmas tree in the living room is from King of Christmas as well.

This one is a 9′ King Noble Flock and it is absolutely stunning. I love the vintage look to it and how it’s not super full. I pair this with the 3′ queen flock LED trees to kind of create a “Christmas Tree Forest” in the living room, and I love the look of all of them paired together!

The small 3′ trees came in a set with a beautiful matching lit garland and a lit wreath too! I have another 8′ King Noble Flock Christmas tree that I put downstairs in our game room as well.

Lowe’s Christmas Tree

This year, we got a different tree for my husband’s man cave garage. We had the same kind of King of Christmas King Noble Flock tree in his garage last year, but it was smaller, only 7 feet.

Lowe's Viral Christmas Tree

And while that’s still a super cute tree, we wanted something a little different in the garage this year. So when we stubbled upon this New Kensington Pine Pre-lit Artificial Christmas Tree with Color Changing LED Lights at Lowe’s, we instantly fell in love!

Multi Colored Lights on Tree

It has 2,250 LED lights on it so it is just magical to look at. And you can switch from multi colored to white lights and twinkling or steady lights too. It’s honestly so stunning that pictures don’t even do it justice! I’m usually a fan of white lights, but I think the multicolored lights look perfect in his garage!

And the best part was that this tree literally required NO FLUFFING at all! And if you like flocked trees like I do, it was honestly a nice change not having flocking everywhere on the ground after setting it up. You literally just connect the 3 pieces of this tree together and that’s it. It’s perfectly shaped already with no effort!

Amazon Christmas Tree

Another new addition to our Christmas tree lineup are these beautiful flocked pencil trees from Better Choice Products on Amazon! I’ve always had 2 pencil trees on each side of our nightstands in our bedroom, but last year they started going out on me.

I had them for several years beforehand so it was time for an upgrade. These are a little bigger than the ones I had in here previously, but honestly, they work just perfectly!

Christmas Tree Scents

I definitely prefer an artificial tree because I tend to put them up so early. However, I do miss the smell of a real Christmas tree. But, thankfully Antique Candle Co. has taken care of that with their Tree Farm Scent.

It literally smells just like pine from a real Christmas tree! So if you’re like me, and love the convenience of an artificial tree, but miss the smell, you need these candles!

Candle in Office

Enjoy These Best Artificial Christmas Trees!

Well, I hope you enjoyed my roundup of the best artificial Christmas trees here. And if you’re looking for a new one too this year, I hope I was able to guide you to some great options!

If you can’t tell, it’s a little Christmas crazy over here, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! I just love the cozy glow a Christmas tree can bring into your home, don’t you?!
