This recipe I got from my trainer. I am currently addicted to the choco ones that my cooking friend makes (I don’t know how to make them yet!), however, these are awesome too!
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
8 egg whites
3 tablespoons of low sugar fruit preserves
1 cup of slow cook quaker oats (not steel cut or the instant ones)
4-6 packs of splenda or some other artificial sweetener…maybe experiment w/the new stevia one…not as bitter as it used to be!
vanilla, cinnamon, any spices you like that would complement the fruit you put in!
a tsp of olive oil if you want
Directions:
Whisk the eggg whites until nice and frothy. Add oats, fruit, sugar-substitute and seasonings and keep whisking to make a nice and frothy batter. The more you whisk, the lighter the muffins will be. Sometimes I add a little olive oil or even benecol to the mixture. This should make about 8 muffins. For easy removal, use the aluminum-lined muffin tins to cook them in instead of the paper ones…or use muffin pan and use some pam for easier removal. Cook at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or, when you touch the tops, the muffin springs back! This is one of my favorites. The chocos are good too, however, I don't know the ingredients. You could experiment though w/some cocoa powder and probably come up w/your own version. The chocolate ones are very filling and have only 30 calories per so….if you're on the run you can grab 3 of these and get some good protein and a little fiber. I have even taken these to Europe w/me! They are handy to have around when you want to avoid airplane food, put in your car to have when you get a sudden drop in blood sugar or a craving for a junk food drive-in, etc. I am going to re-incorporate them into my new diet this week!
