Blueberry muffins

Emmelou Green’s recipe for blueberry muffins looks delicious but I don’t like using butter in recipes since they’re already so calorie dense. So today I experimented by replacing the butter with courgette! Success! Enjoy these moreish and healthy treats.

Ingredients

200g rice or buckwheat flour

50g almond meal

50g raw cane sugar

100g finely grated courgette (mix it in the mixer so you get a mushy mix)

150g yoghurt

2 eggs

1 tsp psyllium

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Zest of 1 lemon

Handful of blueberries

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 200C.

Line or oil a muffin tray.

Mix all of the ingredients apart from the blueberries together.

Add the blueberries. I chucked in a piece of chocolate in each muffin.

Divide the mix over the muffin tray and bake in the oven for 30 mins.
