Healthy muffins easy to make and store.

​

Ingredients:

​

2 large eggs (can substitute)

150ml pot natural low-fat yogurt (substitute if vegan or diary intolerant)

50ml rapeseed oil

100g apple sauce or pureed apples (find with the baby food)

1 ripe banana mashed

4 tbsp clear honey (can use vegan alternative)

1 tsp vanilla extract

200g wholemeal flour

50g rolled oats, plus extra for sprinkling

1½ tsp baking powder

1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

1½ tsp cinnamon

100g blueberry

2 tbsp mixed seed (we used pumpkin, sunflower and flaxseed)

​

Method:

​

1. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with 12 large muffin cases. In a jug, mix the eggs, yogurt, oil, apple sauce, banana, honey and vanilla. Tip the remaining ingredients, except the seeds, into a large bowl, add a pinch of salt and mix to combine.

2. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix briefly until you have a smooth batter – don’t overmix as this will make the muffins heavy. Divide the batter between the cases. Sprinkle the muffins with the extra oats and the seeds. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and well risen, and a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool. Can be stored in a sealed container for up to 3 days.

Protein-rich brunch or breakfast in 10 minutes.

​

Ingredients:

​

1 tsp rapeseed oil

3 tomatoes, cut in half

4 eggs

1 tbsp chopped parsley

1 tbsp chopped basil

​

Method:

​

1. Heat the oil in a small non-stick frying pan, then cook the tomatoes cut-side down until starting to soften and colour. Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the herbs and plenty of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl.

2. Scoop the tomatoes from the pan and put them on two serving plates. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir gently with a wooden spoon so the egg that sets on the base of the pan moves to enable uncooked egg to flow into the space. Stop stirring when it’s nearly cooked to allow it to set into an omelette. Cut into four and serve with the tomatoes.

PREP: 10 MINS

COOK: 30 MINS

Ingredients:

​

2 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 small onion, finely sliced
3 garlic cloves, 1 crushed, 2 whole
1 heaped tsp sweet smoked paprika
400g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
½ x 400g can chopped tomatoes with herbs
1 tbsp reduced-salt brown sauce
300g  Mushrooms, halved
3 thyme sprigs, plus extra to serve
400g cherry tomatoes on the vine
8 chipolatas
4 medium eggs

​

Method

​

1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a small saucepan. Add the onion and fry over a medium heat for 8-10 mins, or until softened and starting to turn golden brown. Add the crushed garlic and paprika and cook for 1 min more, then add the beans, chopped tomatoes and brown sauce and bring to the boil. Lower to a simmer and cook for 10-12 mins, stirring occasionally. Cover to keep warm and set aside.

2. Meanwhile, toss the mushrooms, thyme and cherry tomatoes in a roasting tin with the remaining garlic and oil. Roast for 12 mins until the mushrooms and tomatoes are soft, then remove from the oven and cover to keep warm. Turn the grill to its highest setting. Put the chipolatas on a foil-lined baking sheet and grill for 4-5 mins on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

3. Crack the eggs into a small bowl. Bring a pan of lightly salted water to the boil and swirl vigorously with a wooden spoon to create a whirlpool. Once the whirlpool has almost subsided, tip in one egg, then lower the heat and gently cook for 3 mins. Scoop out with a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining eggs. Serve the roasted veg with the sausages, eggs and beans, season and scatter with thyme leaves.
