Notes
Nutrition:
this recipe makes 8 muffins. The nutrition facts are for one muffin. There are 4.5 NET carbs per serving.
Notes on Sweeteners:
I use my own
blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia
in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to
Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet
and
Truvia
.
To sub in
Swerve
or
Lakanto Monk Fruit
use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for.
To sub in
Pyure
or
Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet
use half the amount of sweetener called for.
Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.
