A nice simple recipe for a fruited muffin, this time strawberry...My sister is a strawberry fanatic and always asks for this when she comes for a visit...This recipe has been updated to substitute oil for the butter and substitute Egg Beaters (egg whites) for the whole egg...It may seem (to some) a little denser than the usual muffin but its an excellent breakfast or snack item nonetheless :D Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 cup egg substitute (egg beaters) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 cup strawberry yogurt (dannon light & fit preferred) |
1 cup frozen unsweetened strawberries, diced small (do not thaw) |
1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated |
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. preheat oven to 400°F.
2. In med bowl, stir together all flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar.
3. In sm bowl, beat together Egg Beaters, vegetable oil and yogurt.
