Monday Munchies for Muffins!

Hi TBYW Fans!  It’s Natillie again with another Monday recipe.  I don’t know a single person who does not love the taste and warm feeling a great muffin can cause. However, most muffins will leave you with an unshapely muffin top! Muffin tops are not wanted here, so I have tried and sampled several beach body loving muffins. Try the recipe below and let me know how you like it and how you made it your own.

Muffins
-10 min or less prep time
-bake at 375 for 12-17 minutes
-yields 10 regular size muffins

Ingredients:
-3 eggs (farm fresh if you have it!)
-1/2 cup cream (grass fed is you have it!)
-1 teaspoon baking powder
-3/4 cup almond meal
-1 and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
-1/2 cup sugar substitute (I used Splenda)
-3 tablespoon coconut flour
-cinnamon to taste

You can top muffins with:
-farm fresh butter
-whipped cream cheese
-fresh fruit
-yogurt

You can bake muffins with fresh or frozen fruit in them or without and change up the spices. For these muffins I added a bunch of cinnamon and a small handful or blueberries to each muffin before baking.

The Disheveled Fitness Chef – Josef Makes a Low-Carb Mock Danish

I can’t believe how yummy this simple recipe is!

One of my clients, Paula (not Dean), was kind enough to share this mock Danish recipe with me.  So, now everyone asking for breakfast ideas beyond bacon and eggs has a new and easy option.

Oh, and while I am disheveled on the video I always shower before I meet with clients:-).

More Ideas From Paula About Variations on the Mock Danish

“I sometimes use a couple of tablespoons of the DaVinci’s sugar-free syrups instead of a Splenda packet, like raspberry or cinnamon. Also, a sprinkle of cinnamon makes it taste even more like a cinnamon roll.  It’s also good with a spoonful of SF jam on top. There are lots of ways to modify it.”
