Winter Recipe




The end of winter is approaching, but man the cold weather and chilly mornings don't seem to be leaving anytime soon. So, give yourself a treat and some extra time in the morning by whipping up a batch of tasty, hearty muffins. They will be a great breakfast for several mornings and a yummy snack too!



Oatmeal Muffins
DRY:2 cups quick cooking oats
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
¼ cup chopped dried apricots
¼ cup chopped dates
½ cup chopped almonds or walnuts
2 Tb ground flax seeds or flax meal
1 Tb baking powder
½ tsp cinnamon
WET:
2/3 cup water, soy or rice milk
½ cup canola oil
4 oz silken tofu
¼ tsp sea salt
½ cup agave syrup, brown rice syrup or maple syrup
Combine all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir well to combine. Combine all wet ingredients in a blender and blend until well combined. Stir wet ingredients into the dry, and stir until just combined. Oil a muffin tin and fill 2/3 full. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
