My new breakfast muffin

Is any one familiar with George Stella? He used to be on the food network, but I guess there wasn't much call for LoCarb and Lovin' It after a while. I've got 2 of his cookbooks and made muffins from one. Had to tweak it because I didn't have everything called for, but the results was delish....

2 C Almond Flour (I put 1 lb almonds in my food processor and whrilled it till it was almost flour consistancy)
1 tsp. baking powder
3 egg whites
1 large egg
1 cup sugar substitue (recommended: Splenda)
1 1/2 tsp. banana extract (I used 1/4 tsp almond extract)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
2 tbs unsalted butter softened (I use Olivio..I like it better than butter and it still is 0 carbs)
I sprinkled some cinnamon in my batter.

Heat your oven to 350 degrees
Mix all ingredients together
Fill a 6 large muffin tin lined with paper 2/3 full....or you can use regular sized muffin tin and make fewer...not sure, never did it.
Bake for 20-25 min til done.

I put sliced almonds on mine.

I like them a lot. They tend to be a bit on the heavy side, but very good. They would be super sliced in half and served with softened cream cheese.
I'm going to make these when I go on vacation so I can control what I have for breakfast.

According to the cookbook
6 servings
250 cal
20 gms fat
10 gms carbs
4 grams fiber
6 net carbs
9 grams protein.
