Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup all-natural peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (can substitute butter)
1 egg
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt

  • Bake until the tops spring back when you gently poke them with your finger, 9-10 minutes.

QUINOA MUFFINS



Quinoa Muffins image

Instead of oat or bran muffins, try these moist breakfast treats to fuel your morning. Substitute other chopped dried fruit for the raisins, if you like.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 1h

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup quinoa, rinsed
1/4 cup vegetable oil, such as safflower, plus more for pan
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
3/4 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raisins
3/4 cup whole milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan, bring quinoa and 1 cup water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; cover, and cook until water has been absorbed and quinoa is tender, 11 to 13 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, brush a standard 12-cup muffin pan with oil; dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, raisins, and 2 cups cooked quinoa; reserve any leftover quinoa for another use.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together oil, milk, egg, and vanilla. Add milk mixture to flour mixture, and stir just until combined; divide batter among prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake until toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool muffins in pan, 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas add sweetness and moisture to the muffins. If you don't have ripe bananas, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or pear for a few hours.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a muffin scoop: A muffin scoop will help you get uniform-sized muffins. It also makes it easier to fill the muffin cups.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are done.

Conclusion:

These peanut butter quinoa mini muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Add your favorite nuts, seeds, or dried fruit to create a unique muffin that everyone will love.
