Low calorie blueberry muffin cookies

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 180ºC (356ºF).

Step 2

In a small bowl, microwave 30g of blueberries until they are hot. This took me around 45 seconds to achieve in my 700W microwave. Mash the blueberries and then add 1 tsp of 0 calorie brown sugar alternative. Mix well to combine and set aside.

Step 3

In another small bowl, combine the softened low-fat butter, 1 tbsp of 0 calorie brown sugar and 10g of flour. Use the back of a spoon to cream them together. Then go in with your fingers to create a crumble texture, forming small clumps. Set aside.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the applesauce, vanilla and 0 calorie brown sugar until well combined. Fold in the flour and baking soda until well combined. Fold in the other 30g of blueberries. Form 3 equal balls from the dough and place onto a prepared baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 5

Flatten each cookie dough ball, scoop some of the jam on top and then top with the crumble. Repeat for the remaining two cookies. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking tray before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
