NOTES Recipe adapted from http://cookieandkate.com/2014/healthy-maple-pumpkin-muffins/ *MAKE IT EGG FREE: Muffins turn out well with flax eggs! STORAGE SUGGESTIONS: These muffins keep well in the freezer. Store them in a freezer-safe bag and defrost individual muffins as needed. CHANGE IT UP: You could really go crazy with add-ins here! Fold in mini dark chocolate chips, chopped dried cranberries or crystallized ginger and/or chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts. J helped me make them. I think her favourite part was eating them!

This morning, J decided it was time to wake up at 6:45am. -_- It is Saturday. So I decided to make the most of the early start and make a yummy, healthy, gluten free breakfast that she would be happy to gobble up! She was so excited she sang the whole breakfast time. My favourite J quote of the morning was, "Daddy your smoothie is ready! You better drink it up if you want it!"
Breakfast - Banana Waffles and Blueberry Banana Smoothies Banana Waffles: 2 bananas 2 eggs (free range if you desire) 1 tablespoon of gluten free flour Pop it all into the food processor and mix it up until smooth. Cook them either as a mini pancake on a hot pan with coconut oil or in a waffle press. Serve with fresh sugar free preserves or if you are lazy like me - St. Dalfour's NO SUGAR added strawberry jam! Blueberry Banana Smoothie: 1 cup frozen blueberries 1 cup milk ( we used goats milk) 1 tablespoon honey 1 banana 1 tablespoon oats or brown rice flakes 1 teaspoon LSA (optional) Pop it all in to the blender until smooth. Pour into a glass and drink it up!
As you can see from the photos below, she strongly approves and as a mum reading the labels, I approve too. Good to the last drop! |
