Gaby's Bakery - Blueberry Muffins

After School Treats

Our kids often ask for a cake or biscuit etc, but I’m very conscious of not letting them have too much sugar. Would you believe they still willingly hand their party bags in to me so I can decide which sweets they can have, rationed over as long as I can get away with! So at least if I’m making treats, they can enjoy the indulgences in a healthier way. These are great for after school snacks or their lunchboxes.

Mini Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients:
100g plain flour
100g Greek yoghurt
80g honey or maple syrup
75g blueberries
35g coconut oil (melted) or olive oil
20g oats
10g wheatgerm or bran
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ ground cinnamon

Method:
Preheat oven to 180⁰C (fan). Grease a mini muffin tray or mini silicone moulds.

In a large bowl, whisk together the oil and honey/maple syrup, and then add the egg, beat again and then add the yoghurt and vanilla. In a separate bowl combine the flour, oats, bran, baking powder, bicarb of soda, cinnamon and salt.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet and fold in, (don’t overmix). In a small bowl mix the blueberries with a spoon of flour as this stops them sinking to the bottom of the muffins when cooking. Then fold these into the mixture. Spoon batter in to the prepared trays, place in oven and bake for appx. 16 mins. The muffins will feel firm to the touch when ready and will have browned on top.

Take out the oven and allow to cool.

Enjoy

Flat, straight and heavy. Sharon’s hair had been cut so short at the back and with no proper layering. The exaggerated long front then conspired to drag the whole look down. The very opposite of uplifting and energising which is what hair should do for the wearer...
