I just made these this afternoon and in my humble opinion they are the best muffins I have had since being on the South Beach diet. Just thought I’d share what I came up with based on the original recipe (found in the South Beach Cookbook), other modifications from Blest and my own ideas. Enjoy!
Preheat oven to 425 deg.
Ingredients:
3/4 C oats
1 C buttermilk (I actually never have buttermilk. I use sour milk which is 1 T vinegar or lemon juice and enough milk to make a cup. I have been using Bragg’s apple cider vinegar lately and think it works better than regular vinegar.)
1 C whole wheat flour
1/4 C ground flax seed
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 C chopped pecans
1/4 C canola oil
1/4 C unsweetened apple sauce
1 egg, beaten
1/4 tsp. pure stevia powder
1 T molasses
1 tsp. vanilla
Line 12-cup muffin pan with paper baking cups. In a large bowl combine oats and buttermilk. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine flour, ground flax seeds, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice, salt and pecans. In the large bowl, add oil, apple sauce, egg, stevia, molasses and vanilla to the oat/buttermilk mixture. Add dry ingredients to the oat/buttermilk mixture, stirring until just combined. Divide among 12 muffin cups. Bake at 425 deg. 9-11 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
Since these are so vastly different from the original recipe, I am thinking I need to come up with a new name…any suggestions?
