Snickerdoodle Muffins (healthified by me!)

Snickerdoodle Muffins just sounded too good to be true.  The original recipe had 285 calories per muffin, 3 g. protein, 1/2 g. fiber, 33 g. carb, 19 g. sugar and 10 g. fat.  Sure, they'd be yummy, but could my body afford to eat them?

Enter the HEALTHIFIER.  Here's MY recipe with nutritional info to follow:

HEALTHY Snickerdoodle Muffins
Cream together:
1 Best Life Baking Stick (Bob Green's Best Life brand of healthier margarine)
1 1/2 c. Stevia
Add:
2 eggs
2 t. vanilla
Then add 1 3/4 c. Chobani plain nonfat yogurt to wet mixture.
In separate bowl, stir together and then add to wet mixture:
3/4 t. each of baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar and cinnamon
1 c. flour (I use "best for bread" type)
1 1/3 c. oat flour (oats processed in blender) Make cinnamon sugar mixture w/ 1/4 c. sugar and 1 T. cinnamon. Sprinkle greased muffin tins with cinnamon sugar, add a scoop of batter and sprinkle the tops with cinnamon sugar.  I made mine in 12 muffin cups and one small loaf pan to equal 16 servings.
Bake 20-25 minutes at 350.

Nutritional info: 156 calories, 6 g. protein, 2 g. fiber, 20 g. carbs, 7 g. sugar, 5 g. fat.
