Books to the Sky @ DW

I got the base recipe from here, and modified it a little bit with inspiration from here. I was making it up a bit as I went along, because it seemed like a fairly idiot-proof recipe, and indeed the results were pretty satisfactory!

What I ended up using:

2 eggs
3 tbsp psyllium fiber (husks)
5 tbsp water
3 tbsp Greek yogurt
2 tsp muscovado sugar
2 tsp maple syrup
3 tsp baking powder
1 banana

• Mix together all ingredients, except the banana, in a bowl.


• Grate banana into the bowl, then mix it thoroughly in. (You could probably mash the banana instead of grating it; I made a judgment call by grating, but this IS tagged "cooking by dummies.")


• Pour the mixture into a greased muffin tin, filling each indentation about 3/4 to 4/5 of the way.


• Bake in the oven for around 20 minutes at 350F.

Ta-da! You have what essentially tastes like very soft banana bread muffins. (The texture is not quite like normal bread/muffins, but the taste is pretty much banana bread.)

I look forward to experimenting more with this recipe with more inspirations from that second link, like using applesauce or rolled oats or quinoa.

Recipe from The Sexy Chef Cookbook, using cauliflower as a rice substitute.

It came out less-than-perfect in my opinion--edible, but could be greatly improved now that I've cooked it once and I have a better idea of what I'm doing, what the process is, how the ingredients go together--so I'll hold off on posting the recipe until I've made a version I'm more satisfied with.

(I will post a pic, though:)

A recipe developed by my mom. She gave no exact quantities so I was guessing at proportions, etc., but it turned out delicious anyway!
