Blueberry Muffins (With Splenda)

Submitted by Derf2440

"These muffins are very good!! (I find Splenda fine to cook with but sweeter than what we are used to, so I usually cut the quantity back to our taste, sometimes a quarter less, sometimes in half.)"

Great recipe. I followed it exactly and I didn't find it too sweet. I am going out of town tomorrow to stay with family and will be making another batch to take wtih me because I know that they will all enjoy it. Thanks for posting this.

Yum! This recipe isn't anything new or fancy or uber-fantastic, but the muffins are definitely very good. I really like the use of honey in these. I added some raspberries to my muffins as a little addition, which I do not regret one bit. I substituted all of the margarine for applesauce as well, and they came out very very yummy.

Great recipe! Batter looks a little funny before adding the flour and milkk, but stick with it. Excellent results--can't tell they're sugar free!

This recipe is from the back of the Splenda box. These muffins are really good because they are big, filling and low calorie. They do not taste sugar free and the fat content is low too. www.splenda.com has some other good breakfast and dessert recipes too.

I nixed the honey and milk and used the full cup of splenda and subbed water. I used stone ground wheat flour (which made this batch so much better) and did half blueberries half apples because I didn't have enough blueberries. added cinnamon, and subbed low sodium salt (i shoulda used more salt than what I did... I love salt and don't usually use the low sodium stuff) i only used 6tbsp of butter to save 70 calories for the total batch calorie count. Wound up totaling 45 calories each- 15 muffins. They were pretty good. My little boy tore em up
