Whole Grain Peanut Butter Banana Muffins (12 muffins)
 2 ripe bananas, mashed
 3/4 dl (1/3 cup) honey
 3/4 dl (1/3 cup) natural peanut butter
 1 ½ dl (2/3 cup) 0% plain Greek Yoghurt
 1 tsp vanilla extract
 1 tsp baking soda
 1 tsp baking powder
 1/4 tsp salt
 ½ tsp cinnamon
 ½ dl (1/4 cup) sweetener (stevia or brown sugar I would recommend)
 2 dl (1 cup) flour of choice
 1 3/4 dl (3/4 cup) whole-wheat flour
 
Preheat the oven to 190 C (375 F). Line muffin tins with baking cups and lightly spray with canola oil. Mix the wet ingredients together (mashed banana, honey, peanut butter and yoghurt). In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flours, salt, baking powder, baking soda, sweetener, cinnamon and vanilla extract). Mix the wet and dry ingredients together and stir until just combined, don't overmix. Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter into the muffin tin until the cups are 3/4 full and bake on the middle rack in the oven for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Serve warm and slather with peanut butter.

Preheat oven to 175 C (350 F). Stir the veggies, cheese & egg together in a big bowl. Once that’s mixed well add in the cooked quinoa! If you find the mixture to be a little dry maybe add an extra egg. Spray a muffin pan or muffin cups if you’re using them. Spoon the mixture into a pan. If you’re using a big pan bake for about 25 minutes. If you're using a small one - about 15-20 minutes. Let cool for around 5 minutes.
