Reviews
I used mayonnaise instead of sour cream, simply because I was out of sour cream. Also used 1 cup of sugar instead of sugar and stevia mix. Turned out great!
I did not have Stevia, so I just left it out and they are plenty sweet. Also, the recipe does not mention when to add the flavoring, so I just put it in with the other wet ingredients. I made them using “jumbo” muffin cups and got a dozen.
One of our favourite muffin recipes! Very tasty
These are very good. I follow the recipe as stated with the exception of using 1 tsp of coconut extract (Olive Nation.com) instead of almond, and using 1/4 cup of brown sugar instead of stevia, and they’re very tasty muffins with or without the chocolate.
Tired of people putting specialty ingredients in the recipes. I live in the middle east and can’t find Stevia anywhere. And trying to find conversions for this are all over the place. I had 1/4 cup of Stevia being equal to anywhere between 1/2 cup to 2 cups of sugar. Another minor thing – almond extract in the list of ingredients, but not in the directions. Almost forgot it.
This recipie is great as written. I used plain sugar tho. This recipies a keeper
Tasty! I didn’t have almond extract, so I substituted almond meal for half the flour. And I only had 1/3 of the sour cream called for, so I used coconut milk for the rest. Turned out great!
I adjusted the recipe for 9 muffins but still got 12. I filled the cups 3/4 full. I didn’t add the chips, don’t think they need it, I might add Craisins. Plan to toast the coconut and increase the almond extract next time. Will definitely make again!
substituted sugar for stevia and worked out great!
While making the recipe I realized there was no mention of the almond extract in the directions, so I added it while whisking the wet ingredients. I used a full cup of sugar in this recipe and increased the coconut content to 1.5 cups. These came out great at exactly the prescribed amount of time.
