Steps

Diet Chocolate Muffin Recipe

In a bowl, beat the eggs with the whisk at low speed for about 3 minutes.
Then add the flour, baking powder, sweetener or honey, water, cocoa, and mix with the whisk at low speed.
Once a homogeneous mixture is obtained, pour the batter into muffin cups. If you don’t have muffin cups, aluminum ones greased with butter are fine.
The important thing is to leave 1 cm (about 0.5 inches) free from the edge because the muffins rise during baking.
Bake in a static and preheated oven at 350°F for about 20 minutes. Check during the last minutes of baking with a toothpick because baking times vary from oven to oven.
As soon as they are cooked, let them cool and meanwhile prepare the glaze
Put the sweetener or sugar and cold water in a saucepan:
Cook for a few minutes, stirring continuously until everything is dissolved, then turn off the heat.
Chop the chocolate into pieces and take another pan to melt it in a bain-marie or microwave.
Then pour it into the bowl with the mixture of water and sweetener or sugar, and mix from bottom to top with a whisk to incorporate everything.
Spread it over the muffins, and finally decorate as you like with sprinkles or slivers. Here is my Diet Chocolate Muffin Recipe.
Place the eggs in the Thermomix bowl, insert the butterfly and beat for 3 minutes at speed 3 with the lid on.
After the time has elapsed, keep the butterfly spinning at speed 3, and slowly add through the lid opening: the flour, cocoa, baking powder, sweetener or sugar or honey according to your taste.
Keep the butterfly spinning at speed 3 and slowly add the water.
Once the mixture is combined, continue mixing at speed 3 for about 3 minutes.
Line or grease a muffin pan or cups, then fill them for a little more than half. Do not overfill or they will overflow.
Bake your muffins at 350°F for about 20 minutes.
When the muffins are baked, let them cool on a wire rack, and let’s prepare the glaze
Put the chocolate pieces and sweetener in the Thermomix bowl. Chop for 10 sec. speed 5. Gather with the spatula, and add the sweetener or sugar and cold water. 3 min. at 140°F speed 1.
Spread the glaze over the muffins, and finally decorate as you like with sprinkles or slivers. Here are my diet chocolate muffins
