100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffins

I know, I was shocked when I first heard it too. 
I've made 'healthy' recipes before, and they never tasted like the real thing, which is why I was so skeptical about trying these muffins. I was so wrong. I originally found this recipe on Pintrest, and couldn't believe that they would be moist, chocolatey, melt in your mouth delicious. These muffins have the perfect consistency that matches with other store bought ones.

The recipe is fairly clean, including natural ingredients without any butter, flour or oil. 
Now, usually this scares me. I don't want my muffins to taste like applesauce and yogurt (trust me, been there done that)! These muffins genuinely taste like chocolate. Boo-yeah. 




You can find the original recipe here!

1 3/4 cupOats
3Egg whites
3/4 cupUnsweetened cocoa
1/2 cupUnsweetened applesauce
1 tspVanilla extract
1/2 cupPlain greek yogurt (or regular plain low fat yogurt)
1/2 tspCream of tartar (or 2 tsp. vinegar)
1 1/2 tspBaking powder
1 1/2 tspBaking soda
1/4 tspSalt
1 cupHot water
1/2 cupBaking stevia OR 1 cup sweetener of choice that measures like sugar 1
1/2 cupSemi-sweet chocolate chips

Because I didn't use the exact ingredients they used, I found similar and the muffins turned out just fine.

The recipe claims it will make 12 muffins, but I made about 15 average sized ones.

These muffins were easy to make (I only needed to use one bowl!), and were gone in my household within a day. Especially with my picky, "theres no way it can be healthy and delicious" sister, it seems like it would be a miracle.




Enjoy! xx
