A great recipe, even though it may sound a little strange to make muffins with tuna! My kids loved these a lot when they were little. Really easy to throw in a lunch bag too! I don't like green olives, but they are good in these. I'm sure that salmon would be a good substitute, maybe even canned crab? Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
6 ounces tuna, canned, drained and flaked |
1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt |
1/4 cup celery, diced |
1/4 cup green onion, chopped |
1/4 cup pimento-stuffed green olives, diced |
1 egg |
3/4 cup low-fat milk |
1/3 cup olive oil |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking soda, salt).
3. In medium bowl, mix tuna, yogurt and veggies.
4. In separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk and oil. Pour over flour mixture.
5. Add tuna mixture to large bowl and stir until dry ingredients are just moistened. Do not over mix!
6. Spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray. Spoon equal amounts of muffin mix into 8 muffin cups.
7. Bake in preheated oven for about 25 minutes, until golden brown.
