Low-sugar and low-GI frangipane pear or chocolate muffins

A treat for snack time. The taste of frangipane is absolutely divine. And on top of that, these muffins are low-GI because they are sugar-free, made with barley flour (GI = 30) and almond meal (which contains fiber and healthy fats, lowering the GI). Don't waste a minute, get cooking!
