Sugar Free Raspberry Muffins

I felt a bit guilty after I'd made muffins with my husband's favourite chocolate so I thought I would make him something nice to make up for it. The very same day I received some Total Sweet* sugar alternative in the post so decided to give it a go in muffins.

Sugar Free Raspberry Muffins - Makes 10-12

175g Self Raising Flour
25g Ground Almonds
1 tsp Baking Powder
50g Total Sweet
150g Mashed Banana (2 small bananas)
2 Eggs, beaten
75ml Sunflower Oil
150 ml Milk
100g Frozen Raspberries

  • Mix the flour, almonds, baking powder & Total Sweet together
  • Mix the banana, eggs, oil & milk into the dry ingredients - do not over mix, it should be lumpy
  • Break the raspberries up and stir gently into the mixture - just a couple of mixes
  • Divide mixture between muffin cases 
  • Bake in a preheated 180 C oven for 18-20 minutes
  • Cool on a wire rack

The husband thought these were THE best muffins, and I must admit they do seem to be improving every time I make a batch. He now has a sweet treat that he can enjoy without worrying about having too much sugar. My regular muffins only have 50g of sugar in (per 12) anyway and considering your average low fat yoghurt has around 17g of sugar in, one of my muffins surely has to be better for you!

I was sent some Total Sweet to try out in my recipes
