They use whole eggs and a special fiber to mimic the taste and texture of flour.

Anyone try them?

I had the banana nut and classic carrot. Banana pwns.
They f'in rock...eat them hot out of the oven though. I like the fact that I could eat a whole batch of them and not feel too bad...that is until all of that fiber kicked in blink.gif

Unreal indeed, I just ordered some. I needed to replenish my Walden farms stock anyway.

Are you talking about the ones I posted? Or the other?

Because the macros for the others are messed up. I mean just look at the fat content. Og. And in the instructions you're supposed to use whole egg and sour cream. Somethings off.

I made it with egg whites and low fat sour cream and they still turned out really well.

I was referring to the other ones, but I didn't notice that you had to add eggs and sour cream.

The ones you posted have great macros too. And they're already baked - bonus.

The ones I posted have something like 12 grams of fiber. It would almost be a staple for those not getting enough fiber. Sheesh...

The macros are just for the mix...you have to include all of the ingredients you add in.

Well then that's gay because it says "One Muffin" and I guarantee you lil timmy's gonna be one sore chap when he wakes up to his morning muffin only to find a pile of powder in a paper cupcake holder....

Even cereal lists the damage if you use milk.

MMmmm, I just checked shipping on my order they should be here tomorrow.

Just in time for my weekend of closet gluttony, but I won't feel so bad if I destroy a whole batch of these. Good Things!
