I am trying to cut back on carbohydrates and sugar in order to keep blood sugar lower, so was looking for breakfast meals/treats to fit into this type of diet. I couldn't find one to fit what I was looking for so looked at several different recipes and then came up with one of my own. This are very good, not exactly like a normal flour muffin, but close enough for my tastes.
