Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c sifted flour of choice
1 c granulated sugar
1 tsp sea salt or kosher
1 tsp baking powder
2 jumbo eggs-beaten
1 Tbsp almond extract
1 1/2 c soy milk-original not sweeten
1/4 c olive oil, extra virgin
1 1/2 c trail mix-with m&m's, different kinds of nuts, whatever kind you like

Steps:

  • 1. Sift the flour into a mixing bowl, add the salt, baking powder, mix it all together. Add the sugar and mix it with the flour mixture.
  • 2. Add the olive oil, 2 beaten eggs and mix it with the dry ingredients.
  • 3. Add the soy milk and mix it very well. Once you do that, add the trail mix and mix it extremely well. It should be like a cake batter, perhaps a little thicker.
  • 4. Spray the muffin tin with pam and pour the mixture into each cup a little more than half full. It should make 21 muffins, so you will need two tins. Place in preheated oven at 350 degrees for thirty minutes or until done.
  • 5. Serve nice and warm with butter and homemade jelly..Terrific!!!!

Tips:

  • For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free flour.
  • To make the muffins vegan, use a flax egg instead of a regular egg.
  • Add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or nuts to the batter for a more flavorful muffin.
  • If you don't have a muffin tin, you can bake the muffins in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
