What's In Your Fridge/Cupboard Muffins and Leftover Fruit Crumble
Muffins
Dry:
2 cups of whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking power
1 tsp baking soda
Grate half a cinnamon stick
Grate some nutmeg
Pinch of salt
Wet:
A cup of grated carrot
A cup of grated zucchini
Some grated apple (only "some" cause you ate the rest)
Some olive oil
3/4 cup of maple syrup
Flax as egg replacer
A little vanilla and a little almond extract
Mix, then Add In:
Chopped toasted walnuts
Tons of dried cranberries
Sprinkle a magical brown sugar/oats mixture over the batter once it's in the margarined tin.
20min at 375 should do you fine.
Crumble
Cut up five or six plums and mix em in a casserole dish with the rest of your frozen raspberries (I'm generally unimpressed that my summer crop didn't last me past Sept 10th). Pour in the rest of your maple syrup. Grate some cinnamon and nutmeg over it.
Melt some marge in the micro while you mix together a cup of flour with a cup of brown sugar with a cup of quick oats. Add grated cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour in the melted butter and stir until that business gets clumpy. Spread over the berries and plums.
Shove it in next to the muffins, and when the muffins come out, crank the oven up to 400. Leave in for another 25. Take it out when you notice that the extra liquid from the frozen berries is causing the crumble topping to capsize. Love it for its deviant nature. Put it in a bowl and top it off with a muffin or two. Enjoy. Again and again. Alone or with friends.

Remember that time I said I wasn't a stress eater? As it turns out, I lied. I guess I just forgot what being stressed looked like. This week brought it all back. For those who live in PEI, here is the visual:

This doesn't constitute stress eating because there's still plenty of fruit and you haven't covered it in easy-whip or something.
ReplyDeleteDo you grind up your flax before using it for egg-replacing?
Whatever's-in-the-cupboard has brought me to some interesting places. I've got some blueberries that are headed down that road in a day or two, I think.
Man it looks really good I love a good bowl with a good crumble in it
I forgot to take a picture of my drink! Oh no. It was bright red. Plum limeade. Killer.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Keri + Mortar + Pestle = ground flax.
Recipe for success.
WHAT WILL YOU DO TO THE BLUEBERRIES? I am excited to find out.
I am so glad that that limeade happened!
ReplyDeleteI miss my mortar and pestle. I think I already mentioned that.
man after thinking about limeade I may just grab some lemmons and make purple lemonade
ReplyDeleteI fully support this idea! PLEASE do blueberries and watermelon. Let watermelon into your heart, James!
