I made the yogurty muffin ones but did it as a loaf.. actually the recipe made 2 small loaves. Even though I added a bit more sweetener it's not really sweet at all.
I did, however, discover that spread with marmite it was so yum I had a few slices.
Now, minus the sweetener, next time, I have my own type of bread since I don't eat bread!

You will have to have the quark. The honey would not do, though you could substitute the sweetener with the honey if you prefer that.
I have just finished eating the mincemeat couscous cake which, out of the two I prefer!
I'll put pics up next time I make either.[/QUOTE]


Could you use FF fromage frais instead as I can't get quark here

Jayne, I am sure you can. Give it a try. It should come up fine!

I had a go at the yoghurty ones. They would have been fine if I had found cous cous in Tesco! I plumped for bulgar wheat as a substitute and it was way-hay-hay too grainy. Oh well...

I just made some cherry and almond ones.

1 cup couscous
1.5 cups boiling water
2 (small) pots Diet Activia (Cherry flavour)
2 beaten eggs
Frozen black cherries defrosted and cut in half (syns as will be cooked)
Almond essence
Sweetner (6 heaped tablespoons)

Add water to couscous and soak til water abosorbed

Add all other ingredients and make into a batter

Pout in muffin tin and cook at Gas Mark 8 for about half an hour (til browned)

Have eaten three so far. Think will put more almond essence and sweetener in next time.

Exactly the same as the sweet ones, Stephie, only minus the fruit yogurt (replaced with 0% greek) and sweetner. I added cheese and onion to mine and a bit of seasoning and bob's your uncle.

You can add anything you want I guess, mushrooms, garlic, leek, tomato, ham...the list is endless. You would have to syn them if using cheese and ham though.

Thanks Kate

So i would just do this recipe

1 cup of couscous
1 1/2 cups of water
5 Tbsp sweetner
1 egg
1 tub of mullerlite yogurt (Vanilla or Toffee are the best) - 1 tub of greek yoghurt instead?
1 Slug of vanilla essence for fun!


minus the yoghurt, how much cheese would you put in it if you were making them? xx

Hey Stephie, I would do

1 cup of couscous
1 cups of water
1 egg
1 tub of greek yoghurt
1 small onion
a handful of grated cheese (I have wee hands so maybe a handful and a bit)
S & P and a bit of garlic (crushed or powder)

I made it in a loaf tin and then had slices for dinner with a salad or some roasted veg (as its a bit chilly these days)

You could use any cheese really, oooh i quite fancy blue cheese and bacon (I would use the HeA and HeB option amounts in that case)

Yumtastic!

stephie0611

thanks very much, think i'll try this tonight, dont have a loaf tin though, should really invest in one, so might just have to make the wee muffins again. xx

I used to use a loaf tin but now buy those disposable foil loaf tins. I bought them from a pound shop. Six for a pound and no washing up!
