I’m currently trapped… in a television guilty pleasure. Please tell me you guys have one of these too? I can’t be alone in this.
For me, it’s pretty bad. For me, it’s Revenge.
It only took one episode for me to realize A) it’s terrible and B) I simply can not get enough of it.
Have you guys seen this show? It hurts… so good. And thanks to hulu plus I can watch all 48 episodes or something like that in a matter of days. Send help!
In the midst of my television insanity, I made us some muffins.
Cute little baby muffins packed with fresh peaches, fresh ginger, and other good for your bod stuff like whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and maple syrup. Des mini muffs are money!
I figure, if I’m going to stuff my brain with trashy tellie, it’s only fitting to stuff my face with healthy snackies. Aren’t I one clear thinking gal?
(Vegan & Whole Wheat) Maple-Ginger Peach Mini Muffins – Baker by Nature
Makes 22 mini muffins
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
dash of salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 large, ripe peaches, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a mini muffin pan with liners, or coat lightly with non stick spray. Set aside.
In a medium sized mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl combine the peaches, olive oil, coconut milk, maple syrup, and ginger, mixing well. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ones, and stir until the flour has disappeared. Using a 2 tablespoon measuring utensil, scoop batter into the prepared pan and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the muffins are set and the tops are slightly golden. Let cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
I love mini anything!! So cute!
These are adorable! I’m sure I could eat the whole batch while watching some of my guilty pleasure TV shows too!
you always put together the most intriguing flavor combos! Love the ginger/peach thing going on in these.
Love the peach in these, such tasty little bites!
I’ve never heard of the show, but I will look it up. I love the ginger addition to this recipe added in with the maple syrup, yum!
I never would have thought to put ginger and peaches together! I bet it’s a fantastic combination 🙂
These are so cute! Looks delicious!
I feel you on the whole “watching an entire show in a matter of days” thing- I watched the entire 8th season of How I Met Your Mother yesterday. Yay, a healthy recipe to snack on while watching a TV show for three days straight!
We haven’t been able to stop watching American Horror Story. It’s like crack. These muffins look like crack, too! Want.
What a combination, this sounds fabulous! 🙂
I’m co hosting my first ever linky party today, i’d love to see this there!
OMGEEE YES to Revenge! I love that show and all of its awfulness (super behind right now, though, because I don’t have Hulu Plus… yet). These muffins sound like magic: Tasty, tasty magic.
OMG I’m obsessed with Revenge!!! I complain about it all the time but I’m so sucked in right now. haha. It’s the most addicting show I’ve ever watched. I love Nolan!
These look soo good. I love “mini” recipes…
I’m in full support of these muffins AND trashy tv. Currently watching: Real Housewives of everywhere.
Haha, I’m watching it too. First season was awesome. I’m currently 5 episodes behind. Thank goodness for Hulu Plus. 🙂 These muffins look yummy. I love it when they are small and bite-sized. Peach, maple and ginger sound like a great combination.
Oh wow! I made vegan mini muffins last week with coconut oil and coconut milk!
These look wonderful and I’ll have to try them out. Love to bake with peaches!
I’ve been watching Law & Order SVU for three straight days. Literally. It’s an addicting show. And I would love to snack on these watching it all 🙂
Yum!! Ginger Peach baby muffins.. I could eat them all!!
Watching cheesy tv shows and eating these muffins, I need this in my life 😀
Cheers
CCU
I love it! “Trashy tellie.” Well, don’t know about trashy of late (I’ve watched some of those Housewives reality shows, {{shudder}}), but yes…I, too, have TV addictions. This past weekend, finally caught up with Game of Thrones and I can’t get enough of Mad Men! Oh joy, rapture. LOVE these little mini muffins…too cute! Must make them soon. I’d probably skip the wheat and go gluten-free, but that’s me (“Miss Wheat Sensitive”). Working with fresh ginger today, too…in homemade strawberry jam! 🙂 xo
I have a lot of guilty TV pleasures (and they’re all mostly on Bravo)… These little muffins look so cute!
Don’t ever be ashamed of your trashy TV addictions. Just claim that your life is incredibly complex and involves lots of strenuous mental work and the doctor has prescribed lowbrow television as an antidote. Wait, just me?
Anyway, at least you are eating very well. I’m definitely going to keep these muffins in mind next time I need something new to take to work for breakfast!
I hate when I get hooked into a TV show!! And yummm these muffins look delish!
I could go on a TV marathon so easily, if it’s a GREAT show. Coupled with a coup of this deliciousness with me, I’d be good to go 😉
I LOVE the ingredients to these babies!! Totally up my alley. And, um, I have so many tv guilty pleasures. It’s a little embarrassing…
gahh! thanks to netflix instant my husband & i have watched way too much tv lately. i’m almost done with the ridiculouly stupid world of high school via make it or break it. cray cray! i wish i had some of these muffins now 🙂
These sound delightful! Lovely recipe!
I am so addicted to revenge! and it’s soooo bad! these muffins look great!
