No one will guess they're fat free
This is another one that passed the office test. I made these and took them in to work and told no one they were "diet." Would the guys be able to tell? No! Everyone loved these; they disappeared in no time flat. The Pros: These are just delicious. I was looking for a more economical alternative to those delicious Weight Watcher blueberry muffins that are around $1 a pop so I was hoping these would fit the bill. I normally like to bake from scratch, but the recipes I found tasted like dough. These are just like normal blueberry muffins. They don't taste fat free at all and rival those Weight Watcher ones. The whole mix is around $2 and makes eleven, so it's about a quarter of the price. These are the bomb.
The Cons: The blueberries are tiny. Just like any other mix, the blueberries are some of the smallest you'll ever see. But this is easily overcome. I just doled out the batter then plopped about four frozen blueberries in each. So they're extra fruity and the big juicy blueberries bake into the tops, making the muffins look home made. Of course adjust the calories and carbs if you do add the blueberries. Low-carb fans, these muffins are not for you. They pack in 31 g per muffin. The Skinny: If you enjoy moist delicious blueberry muffins, get these. They're cheaper than the Weight Watcher ones, they're a one ingredient mix (just add water) and fat free. Can't go wrong here if you have an oven and a muffin pan. Save the extra money for some of those 100 calorie packs we like so much. The Stats: Serving size - 1 medium-sized muffin. 130 calories, 0 fat, 2 g fiber, 31 g carbs, 2 points. |
