Lucy decided to skip naptime today in favor of dancing. She's learning some pretty impressive moves! You may want to skip the first 20 seconds in which Lucy attempts an exercise in futility.
In other completely unrelated news, I've been on a bit of a muffin baking spree. I love making something that's quick, healthy, and fun for Lucy to snack on. Obviously not all muffins are healthy, but that's why I've been working on finding recipes that have less fat, more whole wheat, plus extra special ingredients like flaxseed. Today Lu and I are baking up a batch of these muffins. A few weeks ago I decided to try making up my own recipe, and they turned out delicious!
2/3c. Sugar
1/4 c. flaxseed
2 c. whole wheat flour
1 t. baking soda
1 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1 (6 or 8 oz) container strawberry yogurt
3/4 c. fat free milk
2 T canola oil
1 t. vanilla
1 egg, beaten
some strawberries. I actually can't remember how many I used. Maybe 4?
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Mix flour, sugar, flaxseed, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Make a well. Combine yogurt and next 5 ingredients Add to flour well, stir just until moist.
Spoon into 12 muffin cups, sprinkle with sugar.
Bake for 15 minutes.
