35 Calorie Muffins
What you need:
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar free applesauce
1/2 cup sugar substitute, to taste
1/2 cup water
What you do:
Spray 12 cup muffin tin and preheat oven to 350. Mix flour, soda, cinnamon and salt together. Add applesauce, sugar substitute and water, mix until just blended. Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes or until tops have lightly browned.
You could make these with soymilk and diced apples and nuts mixed in, but it will alter the calorie content (which is approximate). I have also made these with half a mashed banana instead of applesauce, but again, that alters the calories.

SO HOW'D IT GO?
I added 1/2 flour n 1/2 oats like shea did and WOW...Fantastic=)
Well, yeah, if you're going to make them bigger they will have to bake longer as well.
Its funny my mom tried one and said the moist was uncooked hmmm :-[ oh well I will learn I guess 15 min isnt long enough... I will try again with my mini muffin tins
Nah, I just make 'em pretty small. If you make six than they are still just 70 calorie muffins.
The carrot sounds good! I have tried and failed with zucchini (I think I added too much) but will try again sometime soon.
Yum! I made carrot muffins based on this recipe and I used rye flour, replaced the apple sauce with 1/2 cup of chopped of carrot (food processed), and used 1/3 cup turbinado sugar... They were very moist and had 104 calories, 24 carbs, and 2 grams protein each except for some reason it only made 6 regular sized muffins... ???
Yes, there is stevia, which I mention above....
Great picture!
Is there a half-cup vegan sugar sub that would work here? Splenda is certainly not vegan (look at its history in the infamous Huntingdon Life Sciences lab - tens of thousands of animals were tortured for it.)
My calorie counter comes up with about 75 calories if you use a half cup of agave, which is still not bad for a muffin, but I haven't tried it to see if it would work.
Thanks Secondbase and Stars!
Im looking forward to trying it.
Dry. You can add powdered stevia (probably about 4-5 teaspoons), or half a teaspoon liquid stevia will give you a similar effect.
Agave nectar would definitely boost the calories way above 35 er muffin, but I'm not sure if the recipe is asking for a liquid sweetener or dry sweetener for this recipe.
