Default Chai Banana bread -lacto-ovo


Ingredients:

1 3/4 c flour
1 Tbs baking powder
3/4 c sugar
1/2 c fat free cream cheese
2 eggs
3/4 c mashed banana
1/4 c chai tea at room temperature

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a medium bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients together except for the sugar and set aside. In a separate bowl (large), beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until creamy. Add the 2 eggs and continue beating until well blended. Add the sugar and the chai tea to the mixture. Be sure to beat any lumps out of the batter. Slowly add the flour mixture to the batter, blending the wet and dry ingredients together as you go.

Pour all of the batter into a 9x5 inch pan that has been greased with non-stick cooking spray and bake the bread for about 50-60 minutes.

Delicious with a nice cuppa!

Default Pumpkin Muffins

(These are vegan)

1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/4 cups sugar (I used natural raw)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup pumpkin puree (fresh or from a can)
1 tablespoon soy yogurt (I used applesauce)
1/2 cup soymilk (I used almond breeze)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons molasses

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 400°F.
2) Grease muffin tins with vegetable shortening or spray on oil.
3) Sift together dry ingredients (flour through cloves).
4) In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients (pumpkin through molasses).
5) Pour wet into dry and combine.
6) Fill 12 muffin tins 2/3 of the way.
7) Bake for 20 minutes, till a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

These are from RecipeCzaar, I believe. Since I didn't have regular sugar, soy yogurt or soy milk, I used what I had (see notes above). These were incredibly moist, delicious and light (not light as in calories, I'm sure) and the raw sugar gave them a nice texture. Yum!
