Low Carb Muffins
From Laura Dolson,Your Guide to Low Carb Diets.Stay up to date!
These versatile sugar-free and low carb muffins can be the basis for many variations, including low carb blueberry or apricot muffins.
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups almond flour (almond meal)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
4 eggs
1/3 cup water
Sweetener to taste - about 1/3 cup usually works well - liquid preferred
PREPARATION:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.2) Butter a muffin tin - you can really do it with any size, but I'm assuming a 12-muffin tin.3) Mix dry ingredients together well.4) Add wet ingredients and mix thoroughly (you don't want strings of egg white in there - and you don't have to worry about "tunnels" when you are using almond meal).5) Put in muffin tins (about 1/2-2/3 full) and bake for about 15 minutes.6) Variations: Add 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries for blueberry muffins. For apricot muffins take a teaspoon of sugar-free apricot jam on each muffin and push it in slightly (it will sink more during baking). Nutritional Information: Each of 12 muffins has 1.5 grams effective carbohydrate plus 2 grams fiber, 6 grams protein, and 185 calories.
