Hey guys ๐
Today I went to bed so early (too early) but I can't fall asleep yet. SO HERE I AM! ๐
I played a game of chess online, I read articles about the endless list of natural remedies for sore throat and still can't fall asleep.
Other than being on my phone (which is not a good thing, I knowwwww!!!), the reason I cant fall asleep is that I'm having a sore throat. And it hurts so bad ๐ช. I went back downstairs just a few moments ago and made myself a cup of tea (thyme tea) also took one Tbsp of honey with a few drops of propolis tincture....
Anyways, on my computer I have a draft almost ready to be posted here about Craiova town, Romania but that will have to wait for another day or two. Now I found these pictures on my phone and I think its a good time to be posting this recipe of Muesli Muffins.
The recipe is not originally mine and actually I had to search for it in my facebook chat history with @pink.wizz ๐ ๐ . I just remembered I shared with her the recipe, or else I wouldnt remember the source of these goodies. Btw, she's new here and you can say hello to her if you want! ๐
So here you can have a look to the original recipe, I'm telling you this is amazing ๐ , but I really really love the add in I came with: that is chocolate on top and coconut flakes. Yummmmmmm ๐ฅฒ
I was literally obsessed finding a recipe that have muesli in it. I had a big muesli bag nobody wanted to eat. Why? It was too healthy! ๐ kidding but yes,it was a good quality muesli and I didn't want to throw it away.
And I found this recipe!
Caleb wanted to help too, so why not? I love it when kids get involved! There's so much learning when kids are in the kitchen, and plus, they will treasure these moments together. Well, not just them! โฅ๏ธ
Another PLUS is that you throw all the ingredients into a bowl, mix it and bake it! Easy!!!! And trust me, moms appreciate these recipes, they're time saving โณ๏ธ๐.
Ingredients
( exactly how they're listed in the original version)
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup muesli or oats
- 1/4 cup sugar
- one teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup oat milk
- 1/2 cup mashed bananas
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
- one pinch salt
I had brown sugar and oat milk. As for the oil, I am mostly using coconut oil when it comes to Muffins, banana bread etc.
So this recipe was Vegan, No Eggs, No White Flour.
Method
Preheat oven to 200ยฐC.
Spray the muffin tray with oil or use muffin baking liners.
Mash the bananas.
Mix wet ingredients in a bowl.
In another bowl mix dry ingredients.
Gently, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a spoon just until mixed. As a general rule, never overmix your dough.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted inside the center of the muffin comes out clean.

I also had a chocolate 50% dark. I melted the chocolate ๐ซ๐ and pour it on top of my Muffins. Amaaaaazing!
They're more delicious this way, everyone said it.
I tripled the recipe from the start because I had too many muesli into the pantry ๐๐คฃ๐คฃ , so I got 22 Muffins.
Seeing these pictures now, tomorrow I will bake them again. For sure! If you don't have any muesli, you can use oats instead.
I love this kind of recipe and having a kid, I always need to have something at hand, especially when we are in the car (no chocolate for this situation. They will make crumbles all over anyway. Chocolate will be the last needed here ๐๐ ). I don't know about you, but my son enjoys to have something to eat while in the car. Ofc he won't get it everytime but there are moments and situations I know he's a bit hungry and a snack will do until we can have a proper meal.
I usually use my mini muffin tray because Caleb won't do a mess eating those. The classic Muffin tray is sometimes a little too big for us and to avoid a lot of crumbles on the floor,the mini tray will do!
What about you? Do you bake Muffins? Do you have a favorite recipe? Do you enjoy a classic recipe or do you prefer a healthier one?
Stay healthy and stay away from a sore throat! It hurts like crazy ๐๐
Love, Missdeli
