EasyPeasy Mixes

Picture


Now you can have all of the convenience and all of the credit without the cost of those expensive store-bought mixes. With these homemade mixes at the ready, you'll have delicious, from-scratch muffins, pancakes, bread and pizza on the table in minutes.

Get out all the ingredients for each mix just once and make up 6 or more batches at a time for big time savings. Store the batches in separate jars or zippered bags (they can be re-used if filling again with the same mix) and follow the instructions on the label when ready to use. Easy peasy!

Fruit and Veggie Mini Muffins

These delicious muffins are a great way to sneak some extra servings of fruits and vegetables into your kids' diets. This is a modified version of a recipe found on superhealthykids.com. The best way to do this is to make several batches of fruit and veggie puree and several batches of the dry ingredients.

For the puree, combine the following in a food processor and freeze in 3-cup portions:
  • 3 medium or 4 small zucchinis, grated
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and grated
  • pulp from 1 large cooked sweet potato (Prick with fork, wrap in paper towel and microwave on high for approximately 5 minutes, then scoop out pulp and discard skin.)
  • 1 1/3 cups apple butter
  • 3-4 mashed ripened bananas
The above amounts should make approximately 3-4 batches of puree.

For the dry mix, place the following ingredients in each jar or zippered bag:
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
The above amounts make enough for one batch of muffins.
