It's The Muffin Blog!

Dear Turkey,

Yes, I am re-naming this blog The Muffin Blog. But, really, what's not awesome about muffins? You can eat them for any meal. You can take them with you in cute Tupperwares. Your baby likes them. They take less time to bake than banana bread.

So far, my muffins have been fluffy and light. These are more like Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Muffins:


Combine the following (makes 24): 

2 c chopped walnuts and pecans
1 c choc chips
2 c oatmeal
4 T ground flaxseed
1 c brown sugar 
2.5 c whole wheat flour
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
2 t baking powder 
2/3 c canola oil
2 c soymilk

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. 



I've noticed that muffins usually contain baking powder (for that cake-y rise). These have powder and soda, which contributes to the cookie-like texture. Many cookie recipes just have baking soda, but, in my opinion, the best have soda and powder. 

Just sayin,
Tofu
