  • Bluberry Muffins w/NO Sugar subs

    Below is my adapted recipe for blueberry muffins (or "Muffin Tops" in my case, since I just use a cookie sheet, not a muffin tin).

    2 cups of ground almonds
    a sliver of butter (about 1/4 inch thick)
    3 pinches baking soda
    1 pinch baking powder
    1 tsp. salt
    1/2 cup whole milk OR heavy cream
    1 egg
    about 1 cup of blueberries (or whatever amount you like)

    I mix everything together (melting the butter a bit first), then put the "globs" on a cookie sheet. I use a small handful for each glob, and fit 8 on a cookie sheet. Bake until brown (needs to be a little darker than just "golden brown).

    They're also really good with cream cheese smeared on top after they're baked. They taste very sweet, but no guilt from sugar subs!

            I use 200 degrees C (I think you use Fahrenheit in the US?) for about 10 minutes, or until they're a little more than golden brown.

            Also, the stores here sell pre-ground almonds in 200 gram baggies, which is what I use. I looked it up, and 200 grams is supposed to be .87 cups. However, it seems that the bags I use are more like 2 cups, not .87.

            The mixture should be the consistency of cookie dough.

                oohh...one question,

                Has there been a carb/fiber count done on these by chance?

                  Made these this morning! They are quite tasty. I would say they are more like a scone.
                  Baked at 350 for about 15-20 minutes.
