Another yummy recipe!

Here's another yummy and healthy recipe for you cooks out there. This one is from the kitchen of Cindy Huff. And Sarah, in response to your question/comment after the Applesauce Meatloaf, we do have a recipe to fit your needs. It's here at The Lighthouse. Drop in and pick up your copy of Angel Lush. I think it will fit the bill! Now for the recipe!

Blueberry Streusel Muffins
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, lighthly beaten
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons fat-free milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen do not thaw)
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
TOPPING:
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 tablespoon butter, melted
GLAZE:
1/4 cup confectioner's sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

In large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine egg, milk adn butter; stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Fold in blueberries and lemon peel. Coat muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray or use paper liners; fill three-fourths full with batter.

Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle about 1 tablespoon over each muffin. Bake 350 for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm muffins.
Yield: 1 dozen
Nutritional Analysis: 1 muffin equals 181 calories, 5 g fat (2 g saturated), 26 mg cholesterol, 133 mg sodium, 31 g carbohydrate, 2 g fiber, 3 g protien.
Diabetic Exchanges: 2 starch, 1 fat
Cooks note: I personally use egg beaters & Land-o-Lakes light butter. This cuts the fat, cholesterol, etc. and they still taste YUMMY!
