Berries, apple, almond, and oats combine beautifully into these moist and delicious sugar-free muffins.
These muffins are a perfect quick breakfast, snack, or lunchbox filler.
The apple helps to keep these muffins lovely and moist - and provide a great hint of sweetness too.
Like I've said above, these muffins are sugar-free - sweetened naturally with Natvia. This is a great stevia product, it's been made especially for baking and has no bitter aftertaste.
These muffins keep very well, stored in an airtight container and in a cool place.
