Muffins in the morning

Early on in my low-carb recipe explorations I came across this recipe on ruled.me and was wowed by how great it tastes. This recipe is a staple in my muffin rotation and it smells delicious when it’s baking! Tip of the hat to ruled.me for this one….sharing on our site for your convenience. The only modification I made was leaving the stevia out. I don’t bake with stevia and found this recipe doesn’t need it. If you want to try the original recipe for comparison you can find it here: original recipe.
