My Love for Baking

I love baking, Sunday night is my baking therapy. As much as i love baking, i hate the amount of bowls, spoons and spatula in my sink. So, the thought of one bowl baking, excites me, doesn't it?

If you are following my blog for sometimes now, you must have noticed i always bake with some fruit and vegetable in my muffins. Kids don't eating pumpkin when i make it as curry, but they love Pumpkin apple banana muffins or this pumpkin chocolate chunk muffins.

Likewise the once favorite fruit banana, has now become yuccck, i m hoping this is just a phase. But they love Banana walnut muffins or Banana pecan muffins. So now i m buying bananas just to use them in muffins, the shopkeeper thinks i don't know how to pick bananas as i always pick, the ripened ones.

Today's Vegan Cinnamon Muffins

My kiddo came up to me and was like, "Hey mom, can we make muffins without apple or banana?" I was like, sure thing! But then he hit me with, "So you can't make 'em without apple and banana, huh?" Ouch, that hurt my ego!

I ended up baking these walnut muffins with no fruit or veggie, no milk or butter. When he tried it, he goes, "Mom, this tastes bomb, but you sneaked in nuts and seeds again." I always have to add crunchy walnuts and seeds to my muffins. Plain muffins are just not satisfying to me.😆

Equipment

Convection oven
Measuring cups and spoons
Whisk and spatula
Bowls for mixing the batter

Ingredients

2 cups Whole wheat flour
¾ cup sugar increase to 1 cup if you prefer sweeter muffins

1 tsp baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
½ teaspoon all spice powder
½ cup oil
2 tablespoon flaxseed meal, mixed with ½ cup warm water for 2 eggs
1 cup water
½ cup walnuts broken into pieces
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tbsp sunflower seeds
4 tablespoon almonds broken into pieces

Instructions

Preheat the Oven to 160C . Line a 12-hole big muffin pan and a 12-hole mini muffin pan with liners. Or you can bake the 12 mini muffins into 4 normal size muffins.
In a bowl, take flax seed meal and mix it with warm water and keep it aside to gel.

Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, take flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder , all spice powder. Using a whisk mix it all together
Add sugar to this flour mix and mix it well.
Add broken walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and chia seeds. Mix it all together to form a uniform flour mix.

Wet Ingredients

To the flour mix, add the flax egg mix. add 1 cup of water on top.
Add oil to this mixture. Using a whisk mix it all together. Then use a spatula to mix properly with no traces of flour.
Fill the muffin pan with batter in each hole. I used a greased ½ measure cup, so it was easy to pour the batter.
Gently tap the muffin pan to release any trapped air. Garnish the top with broken almond bits.

Let's Bake Muffins

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. The mini muffins gets done in 15-18 minutes so keep an eye on them
Oven temperature differs from oven to oven, so bake accordingly .
Once the muffins are done, remove it from the oven, let it sit in the pan for 2 minutes, then remove the muffins onto a wire rack.

Store & Serve

Let it cool completely. The muffins can remain on the kitchen counter for a day. I prefer to refrigerate in an air-tight box
If serving from the refrigerator, reheat the muffins for a 10-20 seconds and serve the muffins warm.

Notes

Baking temperature varies from oven to oven, so keep an eye on the bake after 15 minutes.
I have used white sugar in the recipe, you can replace it with brown sugar or just even palm jaggery powder, check this pumpkin apple & banana muffins for a jaggery muffin.
I baked the mini muffins without walnut toppings, as my younger prefers less things on his muffin.
