Default Candice's Low Carb Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Okay, so I have to say first.. PLEASE excuse my picture. These are not the best looking muffins ever, but they taste good!

I was measuring out all my ingredients. I was on the baking powder and my son woke up from his nap. I ran to go get him and when I came back down.. I could not remember if I measuring out my baking powder. I thought a little bit.. and came to the conclusion I didn't..well by looks of how these turned out, I KNOW I added double the amount. Either way, they taste really good and I'm sitting on 1 doz so no plans in a while to make again.. So I guess this picture will do for now until I made next time.

Candice's Low Carb Apple Cinnamon Muffins





Ingredients:

12 muffins:

1 3/4 cup Vanilla Whey
1/4 cup ground almonds
1 cup granulated splenda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 SMALL apple


6 muffins:
3/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons Vanilla Whey
2 Tablespoons ground almonds
12 cup granulated splenda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup water
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 SMALL apple


Preheat oven 350F

Line muffin tin with paper liners


Wash apple, then you can either peel and chop up OR peel and grade on a cheese grader. Set aside.
In large bowl mix vanilla whey, ground almonds, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, & nutmeg, then set aside.
In a smaller bowl mix eggs, heavy cream, water, oil, and vanilla. You only need to mix enough to break up eggs a little. Mix in splenda.

Add the cut up apple to your dry ingredients. Just using a spatula to mix, make sure all the apples are coated.
Make a well in the middle of the bowl and add your wet ingredients.
Mix only until everything is wet, DO NOT OVER MIX.. If you over mix you end up with a tough bread( this is true for all quick breads).

Spoon in to prepared muffin pan.



Bake at 350F for 18-20 mins
