Pumpkin Spice Muffins - Low Sugar, High Fiber!

There's Baby Spice, Sporty Spice, Scary Spice, Ginger Spice, Posh Spice and the seasonal member, Pumpkin Spice.

Wait, is that wrong? Oh well.

These pumpkin spice muffins are a simple, basic recipe that is perfect for fall! They are:


  • simple
  • high fiber
  • low fat/calorie (under 100 calories each)
  • moist and tasty

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 pumpkin greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
  • 1/3 cup almond milk
  • 1/4  cup Vitafiber IMO powder 
  • 1/2 cup erythritol sweetener (1:1 to sugar)
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Directions:

Topped with Reddi-Whip and Cinnamon "Sugar"
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line/spray a muffin tin. 
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices. 
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, yogurt, milk, fiber powder and sweeteners. 
  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until combined. (Beating the batter incorporates air and causes muffins to sink!) 
  5. Bake the muffins for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. 
Enjoy!
Makes 12 muffins.

*Note: I sprinkled a blend of erythritol and cinnamon on half for a "cinnamon sugar" topping and loved it! Feel free to try adding in mini chocolate chips or nuts for some extra fun!

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don...
