Ingredients
FRUIT AND NUTS
3/4 cup pecans
1/2 cup date pieces
2 1/2 cup chopped peaches
WET INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup fruit sweetener
2 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp peach extract
1 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup oat bran
3/4 cup rolled oats
DRY INGREDIENTS
2 1/8 cup brown rice flour
1/3 cup oat flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spray a regular
size muffin tin with lecithin spray. Toast the pecans
in the oven for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Allow the nuts to cool. Then coarsely chop them with a
knife or with a pulsing action in a food processor.
Coarsely chop the peaches. In a medium size bowl, mix
together the fruit sweetener, eggs, oil, vanilla,
peach extract and applesauce. Stir in the oat bran and
the rolled oats. Let this mixture sit for a minimum of
10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the
ingredients. Sift the dry ingredients into a large
bowl, stir in the pecans and the date pieces. Make a
well in the center of the dry ingredients, and stir in
the wet mix. When half mixed, stir in the chopped
peaches. Be careful not to over mix, the muffin batter
should be lumpy. Use a #12 (1/2 cup) scoop to place
the batter into the prepared muffin tins. Bake the
muffins in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. Let
the muffins cool in the muffin pans before removing
them. Be extra careful when handling these muffins
because they are very fragile when warm.

Diet Fruit Sweet And Sugar Free - Peach Oat Bran M Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Types of dietThe Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows weight loss whilst still eating many of the foods you love, for example lamb and cheeses. With this diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, nutrition system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The controversial theory behind the atkins diet is that if we reduce your consumption of carbohydrates, our bodies will consume the fat we have stored and we will become thinner The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet plan created by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that one should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston invented his weight loss regime as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific research completed on other weight loss systems. Good foods include, lean cuts of beef, turkey breast, shellfish, provolone cheese, peanuts, eggs and certain vegetables, such as lentils, celery and sprouts. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system initially created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a fat reduction diet, however many zone diet followers believe that they really lose a few pounds by following it. The main theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the levels of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a balanced state which is a lot more wholesome than other diets, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its best and, because of this, doesn't need to convert surplus energy to fat. The most important method of the system is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get increased levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
