Healthy Double Chocolate Breakfast Muffins

May 1, 2012

Healthy Double Chocolate Breakfast Muffins | Butter BakingSometimes, when I sit down to write a post, I have absolutely no idea what to say. Today was one of those times.

I started this post off about how cold the mornings are becoming and how these breakfast muffins save my life because I’m too lazy to make myself breakfast at 6.30am. I’m too busy hitting the snooze button.

Then I started writing about how my puppy is currently hiding in the corner under the dining table. Because she ate a shoe and knows she did bad, so as soon as I got home her tail went between her legs and she ran and hid under the table.

No kidding. She’ll probably stay there hiding until someone bribes her out with a healthy chocolate muffin (no, I don’t actually feed my dog chocolate. But the smell of it gets her out from under the table).

But I didn’t want to bore you to death with my ramblings.

But these particular breakfast muffins are healthy.

Like, full of oats, wholemeal flour, fruit, calcium and protein. I actually worked out that each muffin only had 1 teaspoon of oil, 1 tablespoon of sugar and 2 teaspoons of chocolate chips. That’s all the bad stuff.

The rest is all good, so eat up.
