These healthy muffins are extremely moist and delicious.

(12 muffins and 24 mini muffins)

300 ml flour

150 ml wheat or oat bran

2 teaspoons baking powder

150 ml sugar

100 g walnuts

100 g butter

1 egg

2 ripe bananas

50 ml dark syrup (I used honey)

150 ml sour milk or yoghurt

In a big bowl mix flour, bran, baking powder sugar and chopped walnuts. Melt the butter and mix with an egg, mashed bananas syrup and sour milk. Pour this mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients and mix carefully. Devide the batter between buttered muffin moulds. Bake at 190°C preheated oven about 20-25 minutes. Let rest baked muffins in the moulds about 10 minutes and only then take them out and let cool completely.

These mini pies are very good way to use pumpkin or pumpkin puree. I and my hubby like them very much, but the kids don’t. My mother asked to bake them ’cause she wanted to take them to her work and that’s the best proof to me that they taste great

Dough:

200 g butter

2 1/2 cup flour

200 g sour cream

1/3 teaspoon salt

1/2 tablespoon sugar (optional)

Filling:

500 g pumpkin or 400 g pumpkin puree

16 prunes (pitted)

1 1/2 tablespoon sugar (or to taste)

Coating:

1 egg

Mix butter with four till crumbs (very usefull blender). Mix with other dough ingredients and quickly knead the dough. Put it in the fridge at least for an half-an-hour. Meanwhile prepare the filling.
Cut pumpkin in small bits and stew in a pot with a little bit of butter on low heat till the pumpkin becomes soft. Pour boiling water on prunes and let sit for about 15-20 minutes. Then pour off the water and chop them. Mix prepared pumpkin or pumkin puree, prunes, sugar and cool the filling.
Heat the oven to 200°C. Line baking tray with baking paper.
Devide chilled dough to small pieces (I devide to 30 g). When the dough warms it becomes very sticky, so put dough pieces in the fridge and take only one at a time. Roll dough (if needed on the floured surface), put about a teaspoon of filling and make mini pies. Put pies on the baking tray, coat with beated egg. Bake for about 20 minutes or till nicely browns.
