This has 3 WW points per muffin. We thought that it had a real baking soda taste. Next time I plan to cut the baking soda down to 1/2 tsp or maybe not use it at all. You could barely taste the orange juice due to the over powering taste of baking soda. The muffins looked great and had a nice texture. I used fresh blueberries and made them as posted. Once I figure out the baking soda problem I plan to replace the blueberries with dried cranberries. Thanks, Stinkerbell for posting.
