5 Minute Muffins!

If you're on the go, and have little time, and are always hungry like me, you want something fast, sweet, and tastes good. And if you're also like me,you want baked goods, man I'm a sucker for the bakery. That's partly why I started this blog. I can't live without delicious morsels of tasty treats, warm, guey, with your favorite topping. The only problem is, you feel bad after eating it. Well, I'm trying to find ways around that, that you can make, at home, super fast, but taste good! So, I discovered 5 Min Muffins!

This protein muffin is low in carbs and calories, and perfect for when you get off the bike, or breakfast. MMM I want one right now as I'm sitting in the hotel room at Tour of Bayren-Runfahrt in Germany. So here is my quick recipe for a guaranteed, or your money back, delicious muffin in 5 mins!

Ingredients:

1 Egg

1 TBsp Grated Coconut or Coconut Flour

2 TBsp Stevia or Fructose Sugar (does not raise Blood Sugar Levels, more on that eventually)

1 tsp Vanilla Extract

1 tsp Cinnamon

if you'd like pinch of Nutmeg (to mix it up a bit if you want)

Pinch of Sea Salt

2 Almonds, or Nuts

Slice of apple or a scoop of Butternut Squash, or some sort of fruit, Banana, Blueberries, raspberries, anything works well!

Suggestions:

You Can also add (if you're not worried about calories or carbs and just want a healthy meal) - Oats - Granola - Raisins or Dried fruit - Peanut butter - Chocolate

Steps-

1. Beat that egg! Whip it, whip it good! (put in food processor if you have one)

2. Add the rest of the ingredients besides fruit and nuts. Place in food processor or mix well until a smooth batter forms.

3. Chop apple slice into small pieces(this is the fruit that I used)

4. Lightly add a bit of cinnamon and sugar to apple, place in a Coffee mug and then in microwave for 30 seconds or until warm

5. Slightly crush nuts, but leave them chunky, so you can enjoy the almond pieces

6. Place the batter in with the apple in a coffee cup, throw in the nuts, and fold everything together with a spoon.

Super Secret Step!

7. Place in microwave, cook on high for 4 mins, until cooked through.

COMES OUT JUST LIKE A MUFFIN. Tip the mug over, and BAM, the muffin falls out perfect every time. And this ain't no Teeny Tiny Muffin either!

Optional steps

After placing batter in with fruit in the mug, top with oats or granola or some sort of cereal, to have it come out coated with your favorite oatmeal.

- Dip in peanut butter with a spoon in the middle of the muffin before cooking to come out with a peanut butter filled one!

- Put in a packet or spoon full of instant coffee to make a cinnamon coffee flavored one!

- Toast your muffin, that is what I do! Cut it in half and place in oven or toaster oven and toast it- Top with your favorite topping, butter, cinnamon, sugar, jelly, fruit, frosting, whatever your heart desires, just make it healthy (unless you crack, and then of course go for peanut butter or nuttella or something like that to make it a bit unhealthy ha!

- Additional options are endless, what's your favorite way to eat a muffin? Mine is sliced in half, toasted, with some butter (margarine) and some raspberry Jam!
