So sometimes you just need a little treat! I made these this morning and it was just what I needed! I of course made them the low fat, no cholesterol way and they were just as GREAT! Follow the directions on the box except sub unsweetened apple sauce INSTEAD of the oil. Use 2 egg whites INSTEAD of the whole egg. The low fat recipe is actually on the side of the box...I can't take credit for that one. When ever you are baking-sub apple sauce for oil and egg white for whole eggs and you will cut a lot of fat and cholesterol!!!
Now I can take credit for this little add on...chocolate chips--use 2 to 5 oz and just add to the mix. I recommend using Ghiradeli (60% or higher cacao) DARK chocolate chips or bittersweet chips). However, I did not use the chocolate chips this morning because I am on a 12 week plan and those chips are not worth all those burpees and star burpees I did this morning!
If you plan on making these muffins please remember MODERATION...just because they are lower in fat DOES NOT mean sit and eat all of them! Have one, wrap them up and put them away. They should last about a week wrapped up. If you want you can freeze them, then they will last about 3 months! I hope you enjoy these yummy muffins! Have a great day!
I forgot to tell you one other reason why you don't want to eat more than one of these yummy muffins...They are packed with fiber...need I say more. Have a great day!
