Love yourself this Valentines with nutritious and delicious recipes
It’s time to love yourself this Valentines on CakesBakesAndCookies and we are forgetting all about chocolates and sticky gooey sugary stuff – there’s time for that next month. For the next three days we’re going to treat our insides to some delicious and nutritious yumminess.
Why go healthy
The reason I decided to do these up and coming posts is because not only do I have some good friends on the Bullet diet who talk about these amazing dishes they make using pure, natural and delicious ingredients but because good old Amazon is now selling them…. in their droves! You want Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
So without further ado heres the first of our delicious and nutritious recipes
Banana and Chia seed muffin
Persons
12
Ingredients
- 120g sunflower oil - you can use unsalted butter if you prefer
- 2 medium eggs - mixed up
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 320g Self raising flour
- 2 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 170g Manuka honey
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 ripe bananas mushed up
Instructions
- Line a muffin tin with 12 paper cases and pre-heat your oven to 170
- Mix the oil and eggs together then add the vanilla extract
- In a separate bowl sieve and combine the dry ingredients then add them to the egg and oil.
- Add the banana and chia seeds and mix.
- Spoon the mixture into the cases so they are just over half way full.
- Bake for 20-25minutes. They will look pale. Touch the top and if it bounces back even slightly it’s done. These muffins can over bake quickly so don’t be tempted to give them another five minutes.
- Once out of the oven leave for a minute or two before turning out of the pan to cool completely.
- These muffins taste great with a dollop of jam as they have a very banana bread taste about them.
