Easy Low Carb Recipe That is Delicious and Healthy

By Jessica Tanady 
Even though eating bread is often frowned upon when you are on a low carb diet, there are exceptions to this rule of thumb. The key is to get your hands on some easy low carb recipes, as well as low carb bread recipes. If you have these at your disposal, then those delicious buns, delectable muffins, lip smacking bagels, and scrumptious pancakes, are guaranteed a place in your tummy as part of your low carb diet.

One easy low carb bread recipe is the applesauce muffins, which should be a hit among desperate bread aficionados who have been deprived of their favorite staple. Once you have all the necessary ingredients, and there's quite a lot of it, making it will be an easy and simple process.

For the dry ingredients, you will need 3/4 cup of soy protein isolate, 1/4 cup of wheat gluten flour and ground flax seed, 1/4 cup of oat flour, a teaspoon of baking powder, two teaspoons of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of cloves and nutmeg, 1 cup of Splenda, and 1/4 teaspoon of sat, and 1/4 cup of brown Sugar Twin.

Whereas for the dry ingredients, prepare 4 beaten eggs, a teaspoon of vanilla, 3/4 cup of light olive oil, a cup of pure apple sauce - preferably the unsweetened one, and 2-3 drops of apple oil. If you decide to treat yourself even more, you can also prepare the topping using one tablespoon of rolled oats, one tablespoon of oat flour, a teaspoon of brown Sugar Twin, and some cinnamon.

What you need to do is mix the wet ingredients together and the dry ingredients together in separate containers. After that, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. The end result should be a bowl of nicely blended ingredients that are not overly mixed. You can then pour them into sprayed muffin tins and decorate with the topping - should you choose to have it, and proceed to bake the muffins at 350ºF for 30 minutes.

If you crave for some variety, you can change this easy low carb recipe to pumpkin spice muffins. Leave out the applesauce and apple oil and use 15 oz. canned pumpkin instead.

There you have it, a worry-free and easy low carb bread recipe that you can bake at the leisure of your own kitchen and eat without having your guilty conscience knocking at your front door.
