Blueberry apple cider muffins
This is another recipe that I made on my own. I like this one better than the Chocolate yogurt oat muffins. The blueberries really make this. All of the ingredients go into one bowl, so it's also a very easy recipe to make! :-). Unbelievably- it's under 90 calories! Let me know if you try this!
Ingredients:
-1 1/2 cups wheat flour
-1/2 cup Old-Fashioned Quaker Oats
-2 tsp baking powder
-1/2 tsp baking soda
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-1 cup apple cider
-1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
-1 cup blueberries (fresh are best)
-1/4 cup cold water (optional)
Directions:
-Set oven at 375
-Mix flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda in a large bowl
-Add in applesauce, cider, vanilla extract and mix
-If mixture is too sticky, add in water and stir
-Add in blueberries
-Put mix in lightly sprayed muffin tin
-Bake for 18-25 minutes
-Makes 12 muffins

Sugar lovers- you will probably not like this so much. They aren't super sweet, but they are tasty. For more sweetness, sub in cinnamon applesauce or regular applesauce. You can always add some sugar to the top. I'm content with them like this, but I'm also used to eating like this. The beauty of them being less than 90 calories is that you can add in other ingredients and still keep the calorie total around 100 calories per muffin.
