Quick Breakfast Fix tip #01


I am sure that someone probably told you when you were growing up that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Guess what? They weren't lying to you. If you want a breakfast that's low in fat and fast, here are some great tips:

Blueberry Corn Muffins

2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1-1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup cornmeal
1-1/2 cups soy or dairy milk
1/3 cup canola oil
1/3 cup maple syrup, honey, or corn syrup
1 tbsp ground flaxseed or 1 egg
1-1/2 cups blueberries, fresh or thawed frozen

Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, milk, oil, maple syrup, and flaxseed and let sit for 3 minutes. Add flour mixture and mix just until blended. Fold in blueberries and spoon into lightly oiled muffin tins. Bake in a 400 F oven for about 20 mins. or until golden brown.
