Low Fat Blueberry Muffins

Kree's Note:

I found these online and am storing them here to try very soon. They look like they'd be fabulous with fresh blueberries! Plus each muffins contains only 137 calories and 2.9 grams of fat. I did change a couple of things to fit my dietary needs. If you use the soy milk these are dairy-free.

These muffins are awful!! I followed the directions and they came out of the oven tasting like rubbery pancakes. They have absolutely no flavor and are weirdly dense. My friend who will eat almost anything, took one bite and threw it away! I have never seen him turn down food before, that's how awful these were. I was surprised at how awful these muffins were after reading the good reviews about them. These were very disappointing.

I thought these were very good for a low fat recipe. I added 1/2 tsp. of vanilla and extra blueberries.

not bad.. they're really good with spray butter; i think without that they would be pretty bland and dry. i did use all egg whites, and splenda.
