Almond Meal Blueberry Skinny Muffin
Time for another muffin recipe. I was craving something that would taste just like a blueberry muffin without all of the sugar and carbs in a traditional blueberry muffin. This muffin is grain free & sugar free. If you are a Fit For Photos Warrior this muffin will fill you up without going off your program. Enjoy!
Almond Meal Blueberry Skinny Muffin:
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 Whole Egg or 3 Tbs. Egg Whites
- 1 tsp. Olive Oil
- 1 tsp. Baking Powder
- 16 blueberries
- 1/4 cup of Almond meal (Flax meal can also be used)
- 1 tsp. organic pure vanilla extract
- 1 packet of Stevia & 1 packet of Xylitol (or 2, if you only have one or the other)
DIRECTIONS:
- Add egg, vanilla & oil to mug
- Stir in baking powder with a fork making sure it is fully incorporated
- Stir in 1/4 cup of Almond Meal
- Gently fold in the blueberries, reserving a few for the top of the muffin
- Add those few blueberries to the top of the batter
- Microwave for 50 – 55 seconds. The muffin will still look a bit wet. Don’t over cook. It will firm up a bit as it cools and be fluffy and moist.
