engage Smell-O-Vision...

Maybe if your nose is close enough to the screen you will be able to smell this Apple Cinnamon muffin, fresh out of the oven.....

In an effort to make our school canteen a little more healthy, we have cut out 3/4 of the items on the menu and replaced them with freshly made items. The iceblocks and other assorted frozen sweet/coloured water confections went and Funky Fruits arrived - frozen grapes, frozen orange slices and watermelon bites (blended watermelon frozen in plastic shot-glasses) These are extremely popular!

We're not completely cold-hearted, so although we have done away with the commercially made choc chip muffins, we did decide to put home-made apple cinnamon muffins on the menu.

Here's the recipe for these deliciously moist, cinnamony muffins:

Ingredients:

1 cup wholemeal self-raising flour

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 cup natural yoghurt or sour cream

1/4 cup vegetable oil (I use canola)

2 tsp ground cinnamon

1 large egg

1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and grated

(makes 12 muffins)

Mix all ingredients together, spoon into muffin cases , sprinkle a mix of cinnamon and sugar on top and bake at 180 C for 12-14 min.

Enjoy...... mmmmm
