How is this calculated?
how is it possible that this "healthier" version is about 400 calories more than the other version?is this accurate?rzb
over 9 years agoJust realized that I forgot to change the serving size. I just changed the serving size to 12, which means each muffin has 230 calories. This sounds much lower calories than 400. Thanks for the comment, and happy cooking :)
