Hello everyone! I hope you're all having a great day. :)

Can someone help me figure out the calorie content (even approx.) in these muffins? My kids and I LOVE them, they are absolutely delicious. We don't use the nuts or coconut (I have a nut allergic 2yo), I also cut the sugar to 1/2C, and we don't use the frosting. I would be so grateful! I am terrible at math and figuring out the calorie content in things that don't come with a label is difficult for me.

Thanks!

    I just usually try to find something similar that's already in the database and use that.
