I’ve tried several products from Dixie Carb Counters, but where the breads were excellent, I can’t say the same for these muffins. They are simple to make as all of DCC’s mixes are. You simply add eggs, sour cream and butter to the mix, stir it together well and bake. It makes 12 muffins.
However, the muffins didn’t rise very much, so they are about 2 inches high. I overcooked mine a little and they came out a little tougher than they would normally be, but the real disappointment was in the taste. They had little bits of cranberry in them and the taste of oranges, but it wasn’t very strong and the it lacked any sweetness.
The addition of sugar substitute might help these as would another egg white to get more rise in them, but overall, these are not as good as the muffins from New Hope Mills. I can make a better flavored muffin from scratch using CarbQuick.
Although low carb, the muffins still have 4 net carbs in each one. They are low calories at 31 calories per muffin, with no fat and 2 grams of protein. Given the small size and the flavor of the muffins, they aren’t worth it.
On a scale of one to five, I give them three spoons, edible, but not the tastiest.
