Hello there! I hope you’re out enjoying this BEAUTIFUL day! (While taking time to read my blog, of course. tee.hee.)
I didn’t have a chance to recap my day yesterday because my stomach was feeling off and on all day. Luckily I finally talked to my stomach doc, so we’re going to do some tests and all that jazz. I won’t get into it too much on here, because well, I like having readers. But I’ll let you know if anything serious comes up!
Anyhoo, while going back and forth between doubling over in pain, I managed to eat some substantial food and even do some baking!
For breakfast I had oats in a jar! I made oatmeal the regular ol’ way on the stove, but then added in some almond milk and cinnamom towards the end, and let it stay cooking for a few mins to get it all in there. Then I put it in my empty Earth Balance PB jar, added some shredded coconut and candied pecans (heavenly.) and VOILA!
Yummmy!
Like I mentioned earlier, I didn’t feel great yesterday so my meals weren’t too exciting. The day ended well though – I had a dinner of 2 hummus avocado wraps on TJ’s flatbread (obsessed.)
Feeling well enough to bake is super important. Yesterday did not dissapoint.
I present to you my vegan whole wheat banana peach nut muffies.
What you’ll need:
2 cups organic whole wheat flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tbsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup almond milk
egg substitute – 1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed w/ 3 tbsp water. Sit for 2 mins.
1/3 cup veg oil (would prefer not to use it, but wasn’t sure what to use instead? margarine?)
1 mashed banana
1 mashed peach
1/2 cup walnuts
vegan margarine spread (I used Earth Balance) and brown sugar for topping
What you’ll do:
Preheat oven to 400.
Gently mix flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Make a well in the center.
Mix milk, flax mixture, oil, banana, peach, and walnuts into a smaller bowl.
Pour wet mixture into well of dry mixture.
Mix until blended, but don’t overmix.
Spoon batter into greased (I used Earth Balance) muffin pan.
Bake 15 mins. Stick knife or other object into muffin – when it comes out clean, you’re all good! Also, your house will smell amazing.
As soon as you take them out of the oven, lightly spread vegan butter spread on each muffin. Then, sprinkle each one with brown sugar. It’s easier to just do it in excess and then shake it off. (Hence the waxed paper).
SO yum!
how cute are we?? (yes, I’m speaking for the muffin).
Ok loves, now stop reading and go out and enjoy the day! But come back later to read my recap of today…there may or may not be a farmer’s market recap somewhere in there
love!
