Healthy Apple Muffin Recipe
Day 4 of a very very restricted diet...and I am hanging tough. Also so excited to have lost 5 pounds already!
I woke up craving something sweet and delicious though. The cravings are so intense sometimes. I really think I am a sugar addict. PMS is also setting in so.......
So I decided to give these apple flax muffins a whirl....I mean...what did I have to lose at this point?? I am also so hungry, anything might sound delicious at this point in time, even a flax muffin.
You guys.....happy to report they were amazing!!!! I devoured one in seconds and felt completely satisfied! Highly, highly recommend. I will continue making these!
