Tips
I freeze in bags of 2-3 and use them for lunch or snacks . It helps with portion control and they stay nice and moist.
These are quite heavy, but the taste is very nice. i am sure you could experiment with berries as well, just be careful not too add too many different flavors.
Sugar- i keep the sugar content as low as possible , so you need to adjust the sweetness to your taste and allergies. I ahve started using the coconut bloom sugar. it gives a nutty taste and a lighter muffin.
