Healthy Chocolate Muffins

I found this recipe on Pinterest and it comes from a 16 year old girl from the Netherlands. My picture isn't nearly as cool as hers (I made smaller muffins) but I'm not going to compare. I love that there's no flour, no butter or oil, and lots of good substitutions like oats, Greek yogurt, applesauce and egg whites. These are surprisingly awesome.

• 1 3/4 cup oats

• 3 egg whites
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or regular plain low fat yogurt)
• 1/2 tsp cream of tartar (or 1-1/2 Tbsp. vinegar)
• 1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1-1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1 cup hot water
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 (12-cup) muffin pans with foil cupcake liners, or spray muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a blender, (or food processor), mix all of the ingredients together, except for the chocolate chips. Blend until oats are ground and mixture is smooth.

Pour mixture into prepared muffin pans. Drop 6-8 chocolate chips onto each muffin. (the batter is so thin, they should sink a little)

Bake the muffins for 12-15 min. If you'd like to add chocolate chips to the top, remove after 8-9 minutes, place chocolate chips on each muffin and bake for 3-5 minutes longer, until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool muffins slightly before removing from pan. ENJOY!!!
