The topping for our muffins without sugar
And because very simple muffins look a bit boring, we have given them a topping. Of course, this is not mandatory.
But tastes the same much fruitier and juicier :) And visually makes the cream also something here.
Topping 1:
- 1 package low fat curd cheese
- Honey
- 6-8 fresh raspberries
Topping 2:
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese
- 1 package low fat curd cheese
- Agave syrup*
Here's how:
For both sugar-free toppings, you'll need to stir all the ingredients in your bowl until smooth. Now pour them into a piping bag.
As a little surprise, you can put a raspberry on the muffin. Then you apply the frosting around the raspberry and let it disappear in the cream. A nice surprise, with which certainly no one expects :) As a finishing touch, you can also put a raspberry or blueberry on the top.
Our conclusion
The muffins are prepared super fast and also without sugar. So snacking is allowed here. Whether chocolatey or fruity, here you will find the right muffin recipe for you.
