Recipe:
2 ripe bananas
2 c frozen organic berries
3 cups rolled oats
2 cups groats
1 1/2 c almonds
3/4 c chia seeds dry
1/2 c flax or sunflower seeds
1/2 c apple pectin powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 c Turbinado or dehydrated sugar cane juice
1/2 c coconut oil
1tbs vanilla extract
Cinnamon
Nutmeg
Allspice
Ginger
1/2 c Cacao Bits (optional)
Coconut water (enough to make sticky dough, usually 1-2 cups)
Process almonds to fine grind. Add oats and other dry ingredients, blend thoroughly. Blend bananas with sugar, oil, spices, then add to combined dry ingredients. Add coconut water until dough is difficult to stir but pasty. Fold in frozen berries. Bake at 375 until brown and toothpick comes out clean, about 30-40 minutes. Eat them warm for best taste and ‘butter them with coconut oil to add another layer of flavor and some extra brain-food. They turn out moist and firm like a great muffin should, but are packed with fiber and nutrients to get your day started right. Get some morning thunder with Gruffins : )
