Title: Don't like cereal? Try these muffins
Post by: Jamberie on August 04, 2013, 02:03:04 am
I don't like cereal. But I know with all the nutrients it's supposed to be good for me.
But I do like muffins. These are handy to keep in the freezer for those times when I'm running late -which is more often than not!

The recipe is inspired from one I found on The Healthy Food Guide Magazine website a couple of years ago.

Ingredients:
120g milk
120g apple juice
1 banana
1 egg
150g yoghurt

230g wholemeal flour
4 Weet-Bix
30g rolled oats or other cereal
70g sultanas
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp mixed spice
-some cardamom might be nice too, but I've not tried that yet.
-if you like a sweeter muffin, you might like to try adding maple syrup or agave syrup


Method
1)   Put the milk, juice, egg and yoghurt in the bowl. Add the banana, breaking it into 2-3cm chunks with your fingers as you go.

2)   Turbo for half a second 3-5 times until the banana is blended in.

3)   Add the flour, rolled oats, sultanas, cinnamon, mixed spice and weet-bix (crushing with your hands as you go).

4)    :: for 3-5 intervals or until the mixture just comes together -taking care not to over mix.

5)   Spoon into a greased muffin tray (I made 20 individual muffins) and bake at 180oC for 15-20minutes depending on your oven.

A muffin and a cup of coffee for breakfast - sounds good to me.  Thanks Jamberie.

These sound nice Jam - and all everyday ingredients too.
Will definitely be trying. :)

I'll be interested to hear what you think of them.  Just remember they are a breaky type muffin & not an overly sweet one & hopefully you'll like them. DD has demolished this batch in two days!

I've been too busy for breakfast lately so finally got around to making these for eating on the run and thought I'd share my latest variations...I was inspired by a trendy new cafe nearby and made a batch with zucchini (yum) and right now I have a batch with additional:
Pepitas
Chia seeds
Carrot
Blueberries
Craisins
Agave syrup
Baking powder

It's one of those "throw anything in" type recipes which I love.

It's handy when you can have breakfast on the run. This way you don't spill the milk from the cereal all over your work clothes!!
