I got the original version of this recipe from HAVASUROSE. It is so much fun to cut the oranges into 8 wedges and blenderize them WITH THE PEEL STILL ON THEM! :-) Ultra high fiber, moist if you make them a day ahead and store in an airtight container, and very good for you.

To increase the protein to calorie ratio I halved the sugar and oil, took out the nuts, swapped carbalose flour for standard flour, egg whites for whole eggs, and added a cup of defatted peanut flour. And they still taste good!
You can order carbalose flour from netrition.com and defatted (12% fat) peanut flour from byrdmill.com
I also switched to mini-muffins to make the portions more manageable.
