[Guest guest]

I'm sending out recipes this week of the ones that people asked me to figure out

the points for so here it goes. These are 6 points if you make 6 large muffins

or 3 points if you make 12 small muffins.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour

(which I found at my supermarket)

3/4 cup sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

2 teaspoons grated orange peel -- finely grated

2 egg whites

2/3 cup buttermilk

1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce

1/2 cup chocolate chips -- reg size or minis

 

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray six large, 3 " muffin cups with

no-stick spray and set aside. In a large bowl, stir together the all-purpose

flour, whole-wheat flour, sugar, baking powder and orange peel. Make a well in

the center of the mixture. In a small bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy.

Stir in the buttermilk and applesauce. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour

mixture and stir just until moistened. Fold in the chocolate chips. Spoon the

batter into the prepared cups, filling each 3/4 full. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes

or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the muffins

in the muffin cups for 5 minutes, then remove the muffins and cool on a wire

rack.

 

Makes 6 large muffins; 6 servings.

 

MINA'S NOTE'S: You may cook in small muffin cups. Will make 12 small muffins.

Bake for 15 to 17 minutes and cool as directed. For 12 small muffins it will be

3 points per muffin instead of 6.
