At the moment everyone seems to be going crazy for the 5:2 diet. This recipe featured in The Times magazine a few weeks ago amongst a collection of 'under 300 calorie' recipes. I was amazed that they more or less have no fat in them, and it is the curdling of the milk that makes the liquid thicker. I decided to give these a go for a snack to see how they worked out and they were really delicious! The blueberries help to keep them moist, and considering they are only 150 calories each - they're pretty good! Give them a go!
Recipe: (Makes 10)
- 200ml skimmed milk
- Juice of half a lemon
- 150g of plain flour
- 100g self-raising flour
- 1 tbsp of oat bran (I used wheat bran)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- pinch of salt
- 50g muscovado sugar
- 1 tbsp runny honey
- 1 egg
- 2 good handfulls of blueberries
How to make:
- Combine the milk and the lemon juice together in a jug and leave for 5 minutes to rest. Preheat the oven to 180c and line a muffin tray with cases.
- Mix together all of the dry igrediants together in a large bowl. Add the honey and the egg to the milk and whisk with a fork until combined, then add to the dry mixture.
- Mix until it comes together and then fold in the blueberries. Spoon the mixture in to the muffin try and pop in the oven.
- Bake for around 18-20 minutes until they are golden on top and a skewer comes out clean.
- Then enjoy! These muffins can also be enjoyed as a pudding if you add some ice cream or a dollop of yoghurt!
Enjoy
xXx
