Plan-D Flourless Muffins

While at Sprouts Farmers Market on Saturday, I stumbled upon a gluten free first for me - Plan-D Apple Cinnamon Flourless Muffins. I've seen the gluten free muffins from Udi's and Whole Foods, but these were different. Flourless! I've found that gluten free bread items tend to be a little heavy for me, especially for breakfast, but these were fabulous. They were a good size - about the same size of a muffin you'd bake at home - and the texture was dense and crumbly on the top (in a good way) from the main starchy ingredient, oat bran. It wasn't as apple-y as it was cinnamon-y, which I liked, and it went wonderfully with my vanilla hazelnut coffee. Here's the best part - they were baked just perfectly! The very center was the tiniest bit underdone (which is how I love my baked goods) and chewy, and - I kid you not - reminded me of the very center of a dense cinnamon roll. YUM!



I probably won't get to have these very often unless Central Market starts carrying them (the closest Whole Foods is 25 minutes away; Sprouts is 40 minutes from my house), so I'm really enjoying them as a special treat. Can't wait until breakfast!

Speaking of breakfast, I have been desperately craving pancakes lately. I haven't had them in almost two years (since before my diagnosis) and they just sound so yummy. Any recommendations for a good mix? I'm thinking of trying Pamela's, since everything else of hers is so tasty.

Until next time,
