VitaTop Knock Offs

I'm not sure if you're familiar with this product or not but let me tell you, they are delish. One major pro are the nutrition stats. One major con is the price. I think they are around $6 at Whole Foods for only FOUR muffin tops. YUCK! I found a copycat recipe on Pinterest last week. They were really easy to make and delicious. I brought them into work to share with my friends and I ate one for breakfast everyday for a week. They are really filling.
