Does anyone have a good basic low carb high protein muffin recipe that I can use on SB. I misplaced my book so I cannot look there. Thanks all
I found this recipe in my files but I haven't tried it so I have no idea how good it is. If you try it, let me know if it's a good one, ok? You could also use my Banana Nut Bread recipe and make it as muffins instead of putting it in loaf pans. (at least I can vouch for that one!It's in this forum under "What's Some of Your favorite South Beach Recipes?" )
One Muffin Recipe?7 Different Ways (for South Beach)
Makes: 1 dozen
Basic Muffin Recipe
? 2 Cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
? ? Cup Granulated Splenda
? 2 teaspoons Baking powder
? 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
? 1 Cup (8 ounces) Vanilla Low-Fat Yogurt or Soy Yogurt
? ? Cup Low-Fat Milk, Rice Milk or Soymilk
? 2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl and stir together.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the remaining ingredients. Stir together until well blended, but don?t over beat. The batter should be medium-thick. If it seems too stiff or dry, add a small amount of additional milk.
Stir in the additional ingredient or ingredients of your choice (see below), then divide the batter among 12 oiled or foil-lined muffin tins.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out clean. Let cool until just warm to touch, then transfer muffins to a plate. I would store these in the refrigerator so they don?t get moldy from the moist fruit.
