SUGARLESS FRUIT NUT MUFFINS

NO SUGAR-FRUIT NUT BRAN MUFFINS
I created this no sugar, no butter version of muffins for the health conscious like me! These muffins use a natural sweetener--agave--which has a low glycemic index (32-46) . Also, they have very low saturated fat since butter is not used. A healthier version of muffin and super delicious too!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Lightly coat regular sized 12-muffin tin with oil or use recycled paper cups.
- Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl and the wet ingredients in a medium bowl.
- Add the wet ingredients into the dry and mix to just combined (do not over mix or muffins will become tough).
- Gently pour in the fruits and nuts until folded. You can use any combination of dried fruits and nuts to equal almost 2 cups. When I make them, I love this combination: 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/3 cup sliced almonds, 1/3 cup pecan bits, 1/3 cup raisins, 1/3 cup cherries.
- Scoop batter into muffin tins, until all of the batter is used and evenly dispersed (should fill to top).
- Bake 18-25 minutes or until the top springs back when you press down with your finger.
- Let cool before eating, if you can wait that long, and enjoy.

FRUIT AND NUT MUFFINS
I got this recipe from a good friend. The muffins can be eaten anytime, of course, but they are especially popular for coffee breaks and brunches. One thing you can count on...they're really nice and moist!
