Berry Muffin Tops

Let’s face it; who doesn’t enjoy a muffin top every now and then with coffee as a sweet treat. But with close to 400 calories for most muffin tops plus added saturated fats it’s hard to find one that is kinder to your blood sugar levels.  
While cooking with Crystalline Fructose, I experimented and found the following recipe to be a great brunch treat and better for your blood sugar levels compared to the traditional muffin tops.
