RICH, MOIST, DELICIOUS, SINFUL, CHOCOLATE MUFFINS…..containing NO flour or sugar and only 58 Calories!! These muffins are very similar to Chocolate Chunk Vita Top Muffins. Awesome for breakfast, with a cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon or for a snack for the kids. INGREDIENTS: 1-3/4 cup oats 3 egg whites (I used the pre-packaged kind) 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or regular plain low fat yogurt) 1/2 tsp cream of tartar (or 1-1/2 Tbsp vinegar) 1-1/2 tsp baking powder 1-1/2 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 cup hot water 1 cup sugar substitute (Splenda granular) OR 1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp Stevia 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 (12 cup) muffin pans with FOIL cupcake liners or spray muffin tins with non stick cooking spray. Don’t use paper liners, muffins stick to them. In a blender, or food processor mix all the ingredients together, except for the chocolate chips. Blend until oats are ground and mixture is smooth. You may finely grind the oats and then put in a bowl with other ingredients and use mixer if your processor is small. Place mixture in a bowl and gently stir in 1/2 of the chocolate chips. Mixture will be thin. Using a scoop or ladle put the mixture into prepared pans. Place muffin tins in the oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove muffins from the oven (DON’T SHUT OFF) and distribute the other half of the chocolate chips on top of each muffin. Place muffins back in the oven and bake an additional 2 – 5 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool before removing from pan. These freeze well. NOTE: All those chocolate chips you eat while preparing these or putting in more chocolate chips will add to the calorie count! 24 smaller muffins 58 Calories per muffin 12 larger muffins 116 Calories per muffin
