    1/4 cup Poppy seeds
    1 cup Buttermilk
    1 teaspoon Almond Extract
    4 large eggs, separated
    1/2 cup unsalted butter
    1 cup Splenda
    2 tablespoons honey

Tips

A hand mixer works well for this recipe as you'll need to beat ingredients in two bowls.


Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray two muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium sized bowl stir together poppy seeds, buttermilk and almond extract. Set aside.

Separate yolks and egg whites. Place egg whites in a large bowl. Beat the eggs whites until stiff but still somewhat soft.

In a mixer bowl cream together butter, splenda, honey and whey powder. Beat in egg yolks, applesauce and poppy seed mixture. Next, mix in baking powder, baking soda and flour just until combined. Do not overmix the flour.

Fold in egg whites. Scoop 1/4 cup batter into muffin tins. Bake for 20-23 minutes until done. Move muffins to a cooling rack.


Serving Size: 1/4 batter makes about 21 muffins. 1 muffin per serving.
