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 & Sugar Free - Peach Oat Bran M Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Diet informationThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet primarily advocated by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not particularly a weight loss diet, although many zone diet followers discover that they reduce weight when following it. The science behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones produced naturally by your body), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a state of balance which is an awful lot more healthful than usual, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears believes that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, because of this, doesn't build up fat. The most important procedure of the system is to maintain the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
