Sweet Veggie Muffins

I came across this muffin recipe and thought I'd share it. If I make them, I'm just gonna use applesauce as an egg substitute to make them vegan. Who am I kidding, I probably won't make them (I hate cooking), but maybe. Well, just thought I'd share cuz they look delicious!



Ingredients

• 3 cups cake flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ginger
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup carrots, finely shredded
• 1 cup zucchini, finely shredded
• ½-1 cup squash, finely shredded

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325
2. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
3. In a separate large bowl, add vegetable oil, packed brown sugar, & white sugar.
4. Use a mixer to combine.
5. Mix in the eggs.
6. Stir in pure vanilla extract.
7. Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients.

That's not nice, Rainy....lol...I have nothing like that here.....too great a photo......

 

Oh come on Rainy you don't hate cooking ur just lazy...

PS that pic makes me hungry!

 

ughhh I may just challenge myself with this and make them and then post a pic.....
I'm not lazy. I suck at cooking and do not enjoy cooking at all. When I try to make anything, Anything, it burns! I burn toast, I burn boiling water, ermmm I accidentally left some cardboard on a frozen pizza the other night..

 

I've made a vegan version of these and they worked out well. The first time I made them they were way, wayyyy too heavy/moist, and didn't cook properly. I love baking, especially vegan baking. It's an addiction.

 

I really need to get into some serious baking.I think it would be good therapy.

 

I was only kidding rain, you can do it!

 

looks great, I don't have vegan brown sugar so I will make some substitutions and use gluten free flour. Other than that I can do it.

 

hey guys, look I made the muffins...


















joking, these aren't the muffins.. but I did make them, not from scratch though, from a box.. Blueberry and Banana nut

 

Mmmm I love a nice muffin

 

Way ta go Rainy! They look good, nice golden brown tops.:2thumbsup:

 

Cute photo of you, Rainy!...and wow, your muffins look like they came out wonderfully...This thread made me go get a lemon pie yesterday, which is probably cold enough to eat today.....
I don't bake much....but congratulations to you!
