Low Carb High Fiber High Protein Muffins

"*Update - this recipe is genuinely terrible. Apologies to anyone who tried to make this. I don't know what's missing, but as it's listed here, it doesn't work! I'd delete it if I could. Don't waste your time* These healthy little muffins have no sugar added. They're a great healthy snack but don't expect a sweet cakey treat. They're a great way to get extra fiber and protein into your diet without too many added calories or carbs. To sweeten them you can add some jam or peanut butter when you eat it. You can also add dried cranberries or other fruit or use sweetned yogurt or 1/4 of honey. Because there's no flour these don't rise that much. The cream of tartar and baking soda can be substituted with 1 tablespoon baking powder."

This dish is a real shocker to me, Is something been left out of the recipe when you posting it, or perhaps the quantites are wrong. SORRY !!

Made for PAC Fall 2012. Didn't find these at all nice. Way too salty or sour, not sure what the taste was. I'n thinking that maybe something was left out when making or quantities are wrong. They sounded healthy, but I'm sorry to say I found them inedible.
