Time 35m

Yield 8 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

60 g bell peppers, chopped
1 tomatoes, diced
100 g sweet corn (I use canned)
100 g peas (fresh and prepared or frozen and thawed)
100 g flour
100 g whole grain flour (I use spelt)
2 teaspoons baking powder
80 ml olive oil
100 ml buttermilk
salt and pepper
6 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
  • Combine flours and baking powder. Fold in veggies.
  • In a small bowl combine oil, buttermilk and 2tbs of the parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste (I you like you could also use some Greek or Italian seasoning).
  • Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and stir only until just combined.
  • Fill dough into prepared muffin tins (I use paper-lined ones). Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes. Muffis are done when toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Choose healthy ingredients: Use whole wheat flour, oats, almond flour, or coconut flour instead of refined flour. Opt for natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or stevia instead of refined sugar. Use Greek yogurt, applesauce, or mashed bananas instead of butter or oil.
  • Add protein: Include protein-rich ingredients like eggs, Greek yogurt, protein powder, or nuts to keep you feeling full and satisfied.
  • Incorporate fruits and vegetables: Add shredded carrots, zucchini, apples, or berries to your muffins for a boost of nutrients and flavor.
  • Limit added sugar: Use natural sweeteners sparingly, and avoid adding additional sugar to the batter.
  • Control portion size: Even healthy muffins should be enjoyed in moderation. Aim for one muffin per serving.
  • Store properly: Keep muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for longer storage.
