Don't deprive yourself. You can easily fit this treat into a low fat, calorie controlled diet! It has a rich taste with only 2.4gm fat per serve. I found that I could just taste the prunes but that they gave the muffin a bit of complexity. Best eaten same day, as the top may become a bit sticky when stored. (I kept them and zapped in microwave for 10secs to refresh. mmm) from Aust. Women's Weekly Simply Lite Food. Ingredients:
90 g pitted prunes |
125 ml warm water |
150 g caster sugar |
180 ml skim milk |
1 egg |
1 egg white |
225 g self raising flour |
25 g cocoa |
60 g chocolate chips (choc bits) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 180 deg C (356 deg F). Line muffin trays (12 x 1/3cup) with paper cases, or coat with cooking oil spray.
2. Place prunes and water into a small blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add sugar and blend until smooth.
3. Add milk, eggs and egg white and whizz until just combined. Be careful not to over process. Pour mixture into a bowl.
4. Sift flour & cocoa together then fold into mixture, until just combined. Fold in the Choc Bits. Again, be careful to not over mix.
5. Spoon mixture into prepared tray(s) and bake for about 20 minutes, or until they are firm the the touch. Turn on a wire rack to cool.
