Low Calorie Blueberry Muffins

These sugar-free muffins are a very filling and super tasty (and I mean, even in relation to regular muffins!). It makes 12 dense small/medium (they're fist-sized) muffins that are ~92 calories each. They are absolutely wonderful after being refrigerated over night and are great as an guilt-free on the go breakfast or snack.

Ingredients:
2 & 1/2 Cups of Quick Oats
1 Cup of blueberries
2 Egg whites
1 Teaspoon Baking powder
1 Mashed Banana
3 Tablespoons of Splenda, Stevia or no calorie sugar substitute (optional*)
~1/2 Cup of Water (I usually eyeball it, but the batter should be thicker than molasses or the muffins will be a bit soggy in the middle when finished baking)

Put the quick oats into a blender/food processor and blend until it develops a flour-like consistency. Add the rest of the ingredients except for the blueberries and continue to mix. When the batter is done, stir in the blueberries with a spoon (I prefer to keep the blueberries whole as they give the muffins more volume) and then pour the mixture into a muffin tin with muffin liners. Bake at 355°F for 35 minutes and then allow the muffins cool for 20 minutes before eating.

    Well, the egg whites make it not vegan, but I can just use Ener-G egg replacer instead

    Oops, my mistake. It's an altered recipe from my vegan friend, so I had the word vegan in my head while writing this, haha. Sorry!

    Would these work with frozen blueberries... If so, would you use them frozen or thaw them first?

    Thanks..

    I haven't tried frozen blueberries, but I'd imagine that they'd thaw in the oven while baking.

    Review:

    These were good tasting and chewy. Make sure to cover them when you put them in the fridge. I didn't and the tops were too crunchy. Otherwise, 4 stars!

    I just had 3 and some chai, now I'm ready for the gym! Thanks!


    PS I used frozen berries.

    I entered this in the database as Mfp Recipe - Blueberry Muffins Made With Oats and Banana, but all I know is the calories.

    These sound super delicious! Although they probably aren't sugar-free if they have blueberries and banana in them. It's great that there's no added sugar though!
