This has been nothing less than a week of madness for me...a wildly busy and stressful period, so a lot of things took a backseat. I don't know when things will be on a more even keel, but here's hoping it will be soon. I'm not the type of person who particularly enjoys drama, although admittedly it does add some interest to life. Sigh.
HOWEVER...I did manage to get some exercise in (not every day, but every other day), and I even baked up a new low calorie version of the chocolate muffin! These are deeeeelicious little snacks, and at just 100 calories/ muffin, you can even have them for breakfast without feeling guilty. Or at least I did. Chocolate for breakfast is very comforting and satisfying! Here's what you will need:
1 3/4 cups Oats
3 large Egg White
3/4 cup Cocoa (natural, Unsweetened)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract, Imitation, No Alcohol
1/2 cup Sauce, Apple Unsweetened
1/2 cup Plain greek yogurt 0%
1/2 tsp Cream Of Tartar
1 1/2 tsp Magic Baking Powder
1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1 cup Hot Water
1/2 cup Granular Splenda (you can add more if you like them fairly sweet)
1/2 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
- Preheat oven to 350 F and spray or line muffin tin.
- Blend (or use a food processor) all ingredients except for the chocolate chips.
- Fold in chocolate chips
- Pour into muffin tin (the batter should fill 12 tins about 3/4 full.)
- Bake on center rack for 20 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted. (My oven actually took 25 minutes.)
You will thank me when you bite into one. Bon Appetit!
