Healthy Chocolate Muffins

Desserts

Ingredients

1 3/4 cup old fashioned oats

3 egg whites

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa

1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or regular plain low fat yogurt)

1/2 tsp cream of tartar

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup hot water

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup truvia baking blend (or baking stevia)

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used the mini chips)

Directions

Line a muffin pan with foil cupcake liners, or you can also spray a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix all of the ingredients together in a blender (except for the chocolate chips) on LOW. Blend until mixture is smooth. Do not over blend.

Place mixture in cupcake liners. I filled mine about 3/4 the way full. Once the batter was in the liners, I placed the chocolate chips on top.

Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

Notes

*Tip: At 12 minutes, take muffins out and place a few more chocolate chips on top to get the “muffin top.”
