Breakfast Burritos

I make most meals around here, but when it comes to breakfast my husband takes over the kitchen. He's a breakfast kinda guy! He whips up the best scrambled eggs, cooks up perfect crispy bacon, master pancake and french toast maker, and he makes the most delicious breakfast burritos. I made him tell me every single ingredient as he was making them this morning so that I could share his yummy recipe with all of you!

Carrot Spice Mini Muffins

I recently bought a silicone mini muffin tray and was anxious to try it. I came up with this recipe, with what I had on hand. The muffin tray was so awesome! I highly recommend buying one, the muffins just popped out of the tray with ease, nothing stuck, and I didn' even grease or spray the tray. They aren't as light as regular muffins, they almost have a bread like texture, but they taste really nice. The little critics were full of praise and stuffed their little faces. These make the perfect on the go snack for both mama, papa and little ones!

Ingredients
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup corn flour *
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
1 banana mashed (1/4 cup) **
1 cup fat-free milk
2 egg whites, beaten
3/4 grated carrot (1 small carrot)
1/4 cup raisins

Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 C
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients; flours, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
- In a small bowl, combine banana, milk, egg whites, carrot, and raisins.
- Make a hole in the center of the dry mix.
- Fill hole with wet mix.
- Mix with a spoon or fork briefly just to moisten.... do not whisk or over mix.
- Fill muffin tin.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes for mini muffins, or 20-25 minutes for regular sized muffins or until toothpick comes out clean after peircing center of muffin.
- Recipe will make 2 dozen mini muffins or 1 dozen regular muffins.

* I used 1/2 all-purpose flour and half corn flour because I started the recipe and then realized out was out of flour ... duh! Go ahead and make it with just regular flour if you wish, that was my original plan ;)

** I used mashed banana instead of oil to cut down on fat and calories as well as sugar... since the banana adds moisture and sweetness! If you're not watching your calorie or fat intake go ahead and substitute the banana for 1/4 cup vegetable oil and up the sugar to 3/4 cups.
