Pineapple and bacon are wrapped around boneless chicken. My family is fond of these. You could, if you wanted, dunk them in hot mustard.

Reviews
I’m diabetic and I love these muffins. Not overly sweet.
Used a mix of whole wheat flour and oats instead of white flour. Increased sweetness to 3 tbsp. Splenda. Cut butter to 3 tbsp. and added 1/4 cup of applesauce. Last, used buttermilk instead of skim milk. They were very good!
The recipe was very bland. Next time I will add more sweetener and cinnamon.
I made these for a guest at our B&B who has diabetes and she was very pleased with them. I did use banana extract instead of the vanilla and used stevia baking sugar for the sweetner. They were a little dry.
I made this (at the B&B) when a guest said he was coming in and is a type 1 diabetic. I always make mini-muffins. I asked several questions and made a few changes – I used butter rather than margarine, increased the apple and used a combination of Fuji and Gravenstein (picked fresh from the tree), I added a touch of fresh ginger and used brown sugar instead of the Stevia. Because one batch actually makes 3-4 batches of 8-12 mini muffins, I found each quarter batch freezes well also. When I serve for non-diabetics (most of the time) I sprinkle it with a modified streusel before it goes in the oven – flour, cinnamon and brown sugar (no butter, so I can keep it in the pantry). Thank you! This is becoming a go-to!
terrific everyone loved them went fast
I used 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 2/3 of white flour, and two tablespoons of Stevia instead of one. I wanted something with low carbs and diabetic friendly.
I used regular salt; did not have nutmeg; used eggbeaters; used “I Cant Believe It’s Not Butter” for the “reduced-calorie margarine”. They turned out OK, but seemed to be lacking something – can’t put my finger on it.
I prefer a sweeter muffin, personally. No fault of the recipe, just my opinion. I did make this exactly as directed.
