Hi there--
I am confused about how calories are counted. Is the oat fiber counted as zero because it is fiber? Does it matter if it is soluble/insoluble? How can I find out the TOTAL carbs??
Like on FiberOne and the LC tortillas (both of which I LOVE), the calories don't match up with the C/F/P gram counts. I would love to believe the lower calories listed, but it seems like deception to me.......
Is this why the calories changed on the Hershey's dark cocoa powder from 20 to 10 even though same product?
It just doesn't seem right to me. Does anyone remember those cake rolls from Robbins Nest about 10 years ago? It said like 300 cal for the whole thing. But I was gaining when I'd polish off entire cakes. After lab analysis, they were shown to be around 900 cals per roll. I want to believe the fiber labeling stuff, but I am not sure.....

I don't have oat fiber for the muffin can I use ground flax powder instead?

This made a wowzer delish chocolate low carb low fat muffin:

DRY
1/4 cup oat fiber
2 Tbs Hersheys special dark cocoa (20 cals)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 or a little less cup erythritol
1 tsp glucomannan powder

blend dry ingredients

WET
1/3 cup liquid eggwhite (30)
2 Tbs davinci SF vanilla syrup
2 Tbs hersheys sf chocolate syrup (15 cals)


mix together wet and dry and microwave for about a minute. There may be a little moist stuff on top--don't microwave until entirely dry.

Im thinking about 65 calories and 2-3 carbs for the thing. I sliced it up and topped with a little more hersheys sf syrup and it was so YUM. I think adding the glucomannan powder to the dry ingredients gave it a much moister crumb than you usually get with oat fiber--and of course cocoa acts like flour most of the time.

I will so not be offended if no one a) wants to try this, or b) can't because they don't have all the wacky ingredients but go for it if you are a mad scientist like me

I don't have oat fiber. I do have coconut flower ,ground flax meal, pp or almond meal can any of these be substituted though almond meal is higher in calories. I was just trying not to have to buy anything else for a few weeks. So any ideas would be appreciated.

thanks

My guess is coconut flour, which is mostly fiber.

I just made my first mm sf apple cider but I used tsp of lc dulce de leche powder and da vinci's dulce de leche syrup, used x because this is what I had 1 whole egg and oh my goodness is was so good. The first one I made I forgot baking powder 2nd one I remembered it. I ate the first one it tasted great but I think the 2nd one will taste better or at least have a better textiure.
Thanks you guys....
I had to wait finally got my oat fiber so this will definitely work for me ...
Has anyone tried this in a savory version?????

[Ravenpearl]

1 mm lemon version
1/4 oat fiber
1 tsp gluc powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 TBS lemon zest
2 packets stevia

1 TBS lemon juice
1 cap of lemon extract
2 Tbs davinchi sugar free syrup ( I had dulce de leche)

delicious
76-80 cals with 1 large whole egg

Thank you to whoever bumped this thread! I strangely had everything on hand, including the Hershey's Syrup, which I don't care for either. I used Truvia but only used about half of the amount but think I could have had more. I nuked for 1 1/2 min but think 1 min 10 sec would be sufficient for a little gooey center. I didn't have vanilla syrup but did have caramel so used that. I think in hind sight, I will nix the Hershey's Syrup as I can still taste whatever it is in the syrup that I find objectionable and just double the caramel syrup. It made a huge hunk and I ate the whole thing! Praying for no GI distress tomorrow. I think I will try making 1 per day (barring gi issues) and try eating 1/2 before lunch and the other half before dinner. It is very filling and I bet curbs appetite. Great low cal recipe!!
