A delicious, low-calorie, low-fat muffin that comes in at 156 calories for one muffin instead of 300, 400, or sometimes even 500 a muffin! One muffin is just 6 grams of fat.
They only take a FEW INGREDIENTS!
They are SO EASY to make in just one bowl! NO MIXER!
Zucchini helps to make them moist and there is just a little oil. Blueberries and lemon add to the yummy flavor! I love the soft texture! The sweetness does not overpower the muffin; there is just enough!
Substitute any berries you’d like!
These are great low-calorie muffins!
