Blueberry Peach Muffins

(Photo: Kaitlyn Chow on Unsplash)

12 portions
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 25 min

What you’ll need:

1 muffin pan for baking
12 paper muffin cups
1 measuring cup kit
1 measuring spoon kit
1 large bowl
1 medium bowl
1 small bowl
1 rubber spatula
1 whisk

Muffins:

½ cup (125 mL) wheat bran
1½ cups (375 mL) all-purpose flour
2 tsp (10 mL) baking powder
3/4 cup (180 mL) peach yogurt
1 tsp (5 mL) baking soda
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1 egg
½ cup (125 mL) brown sugar
1/3 cup (80 mL) vegetable oil
¼ cup (60 mL) unsweetened apple sauce

Crunchy topping:

1 tbsp (15 mL) brown sugar
1 tbsp (15 mL) unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup (80 mL) large flake oats (or quick-cooking oats)

Directions

Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Place muffin cups in a 12-muffin tin.
In a large bowl, mix wheat bran, flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix yogurt and baking soda. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk egg, brown sugar, oil and apple sauce. Blend into dry ingredients using a spatula and alternate with yogurt mix. Add blueberries and mix together gently. Set aside while preparing crunchy topping.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, melted butter and oats.
Divide the muffin batter into the 12 muffin cups and sprinkle oat topping on top. Cook in oven for 20 to 25 minutes until muffins are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Let cool and serve.

Chef’s Tip

For moister muffins, do not mix too strenuously. Replace peach yogurt with one of your favourite yogurt flavours!

Nutritionist’s Tip

These muffins are an excellent snack because they contain protein and carbohydrates to give your brain energy. Apple sauce reduces the sugar in the recipe and wheat bran adds fibre. Store-bought has nothing over these muffins!

Granola Bars

20 portions
Prep time: 35 min
Cook time: 20 min

What you’ll need:

1 rectangular baking dish
1 sheet of parchment paper
1 large bowl
1 wooden spoon
1 small saucepan
1 measuring cup kit
1 measuring spoon kit
1 cutting board
1 chef’s knife

Ingredients:

2 cups (500 mL) fast-cooking oats
2 cups (500 mL) puffed rice
½ cup (125 mL) wheat bran or oat bran
½ cup (125 mL) dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
½ cup (125 mL) dried apricots, small diced
¼ cup (60 mL) powdered milk
1/3 cup (80 mL) maple syrup
1/3 cup (80 mL) lightly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup (80 mL) canola oil
3 eggs

DIRECTIONS:

Place rack in middle of oven and preheat to 180 °C (350 °F).
Line the rectangular baking dish with a sheet of parchment paper.
In the bowl, mix the oats, puffed rice, wheat or oat bran, dried fruits and powdered milk. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, bring maple syrup, brown sugar and oil to boil. Cook for 2 minutes. Pour into dry ingredients and combine until batter is moistened. Add eggs and mix until cereal mixture sticks together.
Spread mix evenly in dish and press firmly so that layer is uniform. Cook in oven for approximately 15 minutes or until cereal is lightly browned. Place dish in freezer for about 15 minutes. Unmould and cut into 20 bars.
Bars will stay fresh in a sealed container for up to two weeks. At this stage they can also be frozen, if desired. Bars can also be wrapped individually in plastic wrap.

CHEF’S TIP: Make sure the bars have cooled down before cutting them. You can also portion balls from the start of the recipe instead of pressing the mixture into a rectangular dish to avoid having to cut the bars in the last step.

NUTRITIONIST’S TIP: For an even healthier snack, bring a piece of fresh fruit to eat with your bar!
