My breakfast tea of the day, a rich cup of malt, a little chocolate, & the tanginess of plums.
Speaking of breakfast, I made myself a gluten free banana muffin that I’m feeling pretty pleased about. Here’s the recipe, for all my gluten free steepster buddies:
Dry ingredients:
1/3 cup almond flour
1 T coconut flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
heavy sprinkle of cinnamon ( I also wanted nutmeg, but Tony is out)
Wet ingredients:
1 egg
2 T coconut oil
1T Maple syrup
(I was gonna add some vanilla, but I forgot)
1/2 a banana, diced up small
Combine both.
Oil a large mug or a pint size glass measuring cup with coconut oil.
Press the batter, which will be pretty thick, into the mug, trying to press out air bubbles.
(disclaimer….these muffins are the only thing I use my microwave for)
Microwave for 1.5 minutes. If the center still is soggy, add more time at 30 second intervals.
Sometimes the center stays soft, btw…
Once you take it out, let it sit for a minute, & then invert it onto a plate.
For the original recipe, omit the cinnamon, Maple syrup, & banana.
Add 1 – 3 T water if the batter seems too dry.
This muffin makes a great cornbread substitute. It can also be sliced into 3 rounds & toasts beautifully.
I haven’t tried it yet, but I bet it would great sliced & egg battered to make a great french toast too.
And finally, I think I’m gonna try spreading it into a ramekin & baking it in the actual real oven some time. I could slice it into 2 rounds, toast it, & spread it with avocado & tomato, for a sandwich.
