These muffins are very tasty and very light! I’m trying to introduce a few oats to my diet for some specific health needs and decided to try a bit in my MIM today. And since I had a banana getting overripe, I decided to add a bit of that, too, to my usual MIM this morning. Mmmmm, is all I can say! They are higher in carbs than the plain MIM, but a nice treat once in awhile. Ya just have to watch your carbs closely the rest of the day to avoid going over your daily limit. Due to the oats, this is not acceptable until the grains rung of OWL.
