Not only will this recipe satisfy your sweet tooth but these mantecadas are about half the calories of a regular one (250 calories) and pack 8 grams of protein! Enjoy them with your cafecito in the morning or as a sweet treat at the end of the day.
1. Pre heat the oven to 350* F.
2. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
3. Line a muffin pan with muffin cups.
4. Fill the muffins cups 3/4 of the way (~1/4 cup).
5. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Turn off the oven but keep the muffins in the oven. Allow them to get golden brown for 5-10 minutes.
6. Remove them and let them cool for 10 minutes.
7. This recipe can yield 12-20 mantecadas depending on the size of the tray. I made 12 larger muffins. Enjoy!
