This is my first food post (the saved drafts don't count) since the creation of my new blog-look. I am just so happy with the results.
Makes me all warm and fuzzy on the inside, just like these muffins will do to you......

And I didn't.....
I felt bad that I could not supply a recipe on the spot for this friend, but the same day I headed to the kitchen and challenged myself with the production of a bran muffin.
My mom has a really good recipe, but that would be cheating if supplied hers.
I ran it through my mini chopper to grind it into fine crumbs.
And with the raisins being in the cereal, I didn't have to add them to the recipe. How convenient is that?
Whisk the wet ingredients together and add them to the dry ingredients.
POURING PICTURE!!
You know how I love them, right?
Raisin Bran Muffins
Dry Ingredients:
1 1/4 c. Raisin Bran cereal, ground into fine crumbs
1 c. wheat germ
2 TBS ground flax seed
2 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
2 1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Wet Ingredients:
1 TBS lemon zest (1 lemon)
Juice of 1 lemon
2 c. milk
Add these three ingredients together in a measuring cup and set aside.
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 c. honey
1/4 c. molasses
1/4 c. canola oil
1/4 c. applesauce
add the milk mixture here
1 c. boiling water, added slowly while whisking
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Fill paper lined muffin cups almost to the tops of paper liners.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until wooden pick comes out clean.
One nice thing about this recipe, the batter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. This gives you the opportunity for warm breakfast muffins.
*Note*--- I drizzled these with warmed Nutella.
"Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God."
Ephesians 5:1-2
The task of religion is not to get us ready for heaven. Even though this has been the guidance in past generations, it is, in itself, a simple task as far as God is concerned. He preps us for heaven by an act of faith in Jesus Christ. The major task of faith, however, is to dress us for life, to fully live life.
To be an imitator of God means to be godlike. What a challenge this is. There has never been a higher challenge set before human beings. Be godlike!! Some of the young people are looking for a cause that they can follow. Well, what cause could be better than being godlike? What a challenge....Be godlike in the midst of a world that is out to destroy godlikeness as fast as possible. Be different. Challenge yourself. Challenge others.
Be godlike!
What will you be like if you are godlike? The power the world admires most is to destroy. The power of God is to unite. You will be happy, realistic, livable, strong, and able to unite in a world of turmoil.
this looks so yummy.....
