Healthy Recipes
This
recipe is a result of my desire for an on-the-go meal replacement.
I need a lean protein, a starchy carb, and a veggie with a bit of fat. These hit
it all, plus - hello, frosting! I had a lot of fun developing these, and while
there's no added sugar/sweetener, I think they turned out pretty good :-) As a
breakfast, 3 muffins would be about the same as my oatmeal with protein
powder/ground flax.

Ingredients
●
1/4 cup dry oatmeal/rolled outs -
ground to flour (in a coffee grinder, or just use 1/4 cup oat flour)
●
1/4 cup coconut flour
●
2 scoops vanilla protein powder
●
2 Tbsp ground flax seed
●
1/4 tsp sea-salt
●
1 tsp baking powder
●
1 egg white
●
1 Tbsp unsweetened apple sauce
●
1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond
milk
●
8 drops Capella Apple Pie Flavor
(optional)
●
1 tsp vanilla (pure extract)
●
1 cup shredded zucchini
Directions
●
Mix together the dry ingredients.
●
In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients, then
blend together with the dry.
●
When nearly blended, add the cup of shredded
zucchini and mix together.
●
Spray a muffin tin with clean oil (I use coconut).
●
Divide the batter into 6 muffin cups.
●
Bake at 350 for about 20-24 minutes.
NOTE: I start at 15 and check them every 3 minutes until they're
just starting to go gold/brown on
top - don't over-bake these! You'll end up with a dry nasty rock.
●
Remove from oven when a knife inserted comes out
clean (even if they don't look done).
●
Set on cooling rack.
Frosting:
●
In a small bowl, mix 2 Tbsp vanilla unsweetened
almond milk with 1/2 tsp vanilla.
●
If you like, add 4 drops of your favorite Capella
flavor drop (I like either Caramel or Apple Pie with these muffins).
●
Slowly add liquid to 1 scoop vanilla protein powder,
stirring constantly.
●
When all liquid is incorporated, you can add a few
drops of coconut oil to "smooth" out the icing.
●
Divide icing among the six cooled muffins.
●
Store in airtight container in fridge.
