I must admit that the rolls and the flat bread were easy to warm up as I would toast them literally whilst they were putting on their shoes.
Still haven't decided whether I should toast the muffins, microwave them or leave them simply at room temperature.
Having 2 girls, I try and bake in even number so there are no arguments on who will be gobbling up the last one and I managed quite well with this batch as I made 16. Here is what you will need:
For the basic Muffin recipe
250g Wholemeal flour
150g Plain flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch of salt
100 ml sunflower seed oil
2 eggs
250 ml buttermilk*
Veggies
1 small tin of sweetcorn (rinsed and drained)
1 handful of shredded carrots
3 frozen squares of spinach leaves (defrosted)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
100g sunflower seeds or sesame seeds or poppy seeds
You can really choose any veggies that you fancy but these are usually readily available and hence my choice. No need for mixers!
Place your basic recipe ingredients together in a bowl. Stick to the above order and mix well, using a wooden spoon or a knife after every addition. Next add the vegetables. You can substitute any vegetables you wish. you may want to add chickpeas or beans instead of the sweetcorn. It is really up to you and what you fancy!
Once all the ingredients have been properly mixed through, you should have a soft, smooth mixture that just falls back down when scooped up. If this is what you have then carry on, if not you will need to check your ingredients.
Scoop the mixture into a 12 deep hole muffin tin, sprinkle your seeds on top and bake at 170C for about 15minutes.
*Buttermilk is a sour milk-like dairy product. If you cannot find it then dilute natural yoghurt with enough milk to turn it into a drink. It should have the consistency of runny cream.
