so, what made these bitter? the baking soda? should it be baking powder?
i didn’t even putt the other things like carrots or avocado in it, not even stevia?
hmmm….how can i perfect this?
I didn’t even make these, but I felt like the stevia amount was waaay high, and after reading the comments it looks like that’s the case. My guess is that she’s using a cup-for-cup stevia sugar substitute, like stevia in the raw, or stevia baking blend? Just a thought.
I agree with Len’s early post. The muffins looked so good – but due to how bitter they tasted, I had to toss the whole batch of batter after such high hopes of making them for Easter brunch. There was WAY too much stevia, too, even with using only half of what the recipe called for. A solution could be to cut the amount of baking powder in half, and although I know stevia is nutritionally preferable to other sweeteners, it does not work with these muffins (tastes like an overdose of Equal). I would recommend Agave, or leave out/cut down on some other moistening ingredient and instead add applesauce as a healthy sweetener. Good luck!
I just made these…. Looked so good and moist… but they were bitter. I just wasted all those ingredients. :( I’m thinking you made a typo on the baking soda? Two teaspoon seems so much but I followed your recipe anyway. It’s the only reason why I think they came out bitter?

Tried these. They were OK. They were not like pancakes, they were like eggy baanna circles. Still pretty good but not amazing.
A healthy muffin recipe with not a banana in sight? Don’t know how you did it, but these look totally amazing Cassey!
Those look so good and very interesting lol
When will you be having some Capri workout bottoms again??
This sounds so yummy! Do you think I could put in extra yogurt to substitute for the avocado or something else? I can’t stand avocado (in the minority I know)…
Hey Cassey, I can’t wait to try this but I don’t have Stevia :( how much regular sugar can I use? I cant seem to find a reliable source on google for the conversion, please help! Thanks :D
I just made these the other day and had to substitute sugar as well and I did almost 1/2 cup of sugar and they taste amazing! I also had to substitute twice as much almond milk for the yogurt just because I can’t stand yogurt!
Please give us the nutrition facts as well, such as protein and fat content. They look great!
This looks delicious! I wouldn’t have expected to see all of these ingredients together.
Dear Cassey, what shoul I do with the peeled orange? Should I process it and then mix with the rest of ingredients?? Love your recipies!!! Thank you!!
I’ve gotta try making these. Thanks, Cassey! :)
Looks absolutely delicious! How many calories does one muffin have?
I just found out recently that I can’t eat oats! Which totally sucks because I was loving your healthy pizza recipe :( I wonder if I could use almond flour for this…
You always have the best recipes :) Thank you so much for posting a recipe that I can easily make gluten-free!
Haha I’m surprised there is no bananas, we all know how you love to use those when you bake! You’re not alone, they are quite the tasty treat.
This recipe reminds me of Morning Glory Muffins :)
Mmm these look really tasty! x
