  1. Does this taste as good as a muffin made with flour and a ton of butter or oil? Not quite, but it's nearly as good and it is so much better for you and natural. I was shocked that all those ingredients created a fluffy-little muffin-like thing. If watching carbs or just wanting to incorporate more good fats into your diet, this is a great treat. If you follow the recipe properly and use the proper Splenda, then these won't be really sweet, which is okay by me. Might consider adding a few mini chocolate chips next time, and part of me is curious to see how some shredded zucchini or carrot might do. Keeper recipe, thanks.
     
  2. Wow! These were great! I made a few adjustments: 1/2 C organic almond butter (instead of regular peanut butter), 1/4 C organic, natural apple sauce (instead of almonds), cottage cheese (instead of ricotta), and although not S.B. phase 1 friendly, I added 1/2 C fresh blackberries. Yum!! I will definitely make these again!
     
  3. As SBD muffins go, these are very tasty and don't have the strong Splenda aftertaste of some. Very good. I will make these again. Note: I used "natural" peanut butter that was salt-free and the muffins were definately lacking salt. I will add 1/4tsp. salt next time.
     
  4. I did this 3 times because they were tasty. My picture is of my 3rd try where i used almond butter which made for smoother batter after microwave so better presentation but i like peanut butter better. I added cinnamon and nutmeg and made 12 rather than 24
     
  5. These were awesome. We just started the South Beach diet and we really wanted something "bread like". Thank you so much for posting this. It was really easy to make and very tasty... I didn't have mini muffin cups so I used a regular muffin pan and made 12 total.

  1. I too made a few adjustments, just because it was what I had on hand. I subbed agave for the splenda (might add some more next time) and ground up some cashews instead of almonds. I too added unsweetened cocoa powder (2T). They also had to bake for 25 minutes - after 15 they were still too wet so I put them back in. Tomorrow is my birthday and these will make for some excellent cupcake subs with a bit of cool whip on top!
     
  2. They did satisfy my craving for bread but I thought the taste left a lot to be desired. So I recreated my own kind based off of the original recipe but instead I added 1/4C of shredded italian squash, added two packets of sweet n low for added sweetness, used pecans instead of almonds, added a couple dashes of cinnamon, and 1 and 1/2 tsp of vanilla. They came out tasty and moist and just sweet enough for me!!! Thanks for this recipe! Anyone can change it to suit their taste. Oh important to note that even with the original recipe, the peanut butter was hard to taste and once I recreated my own it was like I didn't even include it in my recipe even though I did lol.
