click here to find out more about Suemuffins.jpg (5584 bytes)This week's Recipe of the Week features sugar free, non-fat muffins. We received this yummy recipe from a member of our healthy cooking's online group from down under in Australia. These muffins would be best served for breakfast and snack time.

What you need:

  • 4 sugar bananas or 2 large bananas
  • 1 tspn cinnamon
  • 1 tspn baking powder
  • 2 cups wholemeal flour
  • 1/2 cup of nonfat blueberry yogurt (or similar)
  • 1/3 - 1/2 cup of skim milk
  • 2 eggs (or 3 - 4 egg whites)

What you do:

  1. Mash bananas. Whisk eggs and add to yogurt - mix.
  2. Place flour, cinnamon, baking powder and together in a large bowl and mix well. Add milk and yogurt/egg mix and combine well.
  3. Add milk until you can mix all the ingredients together. Add enough just to coat the dry ingredients. Spoon into non stick muffin pan and sprinkle with a tiny amount of coconut.
  4. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes or until golden brown and tests done with toothpick.

    Grated apple, diced dried apricots or sultanas can be used instead of bananas for some variety. The muffins are a little tougher than regular muffins as there is no sugar in them. Wrap up each muffin in plastic and freeze as soon as cool. I find these muffins a life saver for afternoon tea when everyone else is munching on their fat filled biscuits.

Sugar-Free Applie Pie

It is apple season in many parts of the U.S. and what better way to celebrate the harvest with a beautiful apple pie! The pie crust can be made from your favorite recipe or purchased from your grocery store. It is good to select apples that are firm and without brown spots. Granny Smith apples are wonderful in pie because of their tart and tangy taste.

Lemon Bread
