Jennywren 42 Posted March 21, 2011 OMG! Tonight I made the pistachio Protein mini muffin recipe from Eggface and it was incredibly delicious! I used cottage cheese instead of oil and they came out moist and amazing. My fiance said they are his favorites so far. Here is the link: http://theworldaccor...nd-wrap-up.html Attached is a picture of the cute yummy darlings that I baked up tonight. Eggface's fun muffin/donuts recipes are really keeping my carb and sugar cravings to a minimum. I calculate the stats as: serving: 1 muffin 43 calories 2g fat 3g carbs 4g Protein Rockin' my sleeve with some help from my mini muffin pan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted March 21, 2011 Where do you get the almond meal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jennywren 42 Posted March 21, 2011 Trader Joe's has almond meal. Finding pistachio pudding was a chaLlenge... Safeway had it stocked for st. Patty's day. I used roasted salted pistachios on top to add a salty crunch. Yummy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackBerryJuice 349 Posted March 21, 2011 Interesting recipe. Doubt I'll find almond meal, anyone know what can be substituted? Or should I just grind some almonds in the food processor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jennywren 42 Posted March 21, 2011 I don't know about substitution or self grinding but I found some on line: http://www.vitacost.com/FunFresh-Foods-Gluten-Free-California-Almond-Flour I would think that health food store would carry it too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackBerryJuice 349 Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks, I was actually able to find it in the baking aisle of my Safeway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susanne 32 Posted March 23, 2011 Just grind it in a food processor. I have a lot of German recipes that ask for hazelnut meal and I always do that. Works like a charm! I also use almond meal to make Orgeat for cocktails! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetgalntx 1 Posted March 30, 2011 Where did you find the mini muffin pans and donuts pans? I can't find it anywhere here in my town. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jennywren 42 Posted March 30, 2011 I found the mini muffin pans at Bed Bath and Beyond but they also have some at Walmart. I ordered the mini donut pan from Amazon.com which I imagine also has mini muffin pans! Good luck and hope that you can find them soon. Mini muffins and donuts have sure helped me with my carb cravings... and Eggface bites recipes are awesome breakfast/snacks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SParkle 4 Posted March 31, 2011 Yum.... I love pistachios! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetgalntx 1 Posted April 1, 2011 Thank you for your info. I've looked at our Walmart here in my town and we don't have them, either that or I looked in the wrong department. Can't get much help there they don't know where they moved things too either. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
