Directions
Trick and Treat Muffins, Muffins designed to trick children into eating some fruit and vegetables Children think they are having a delicious, moist chocolate treat In fact they are eating low fat muffins containing apples and beetroot And when do you confess your deception? Perhaps at their twenty-first birthday party? Or when they leave home, when you give them the recipe? Or if there are other younger children still being deceived, perhaps this is best shared privately Like the truth about Father Christmas, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy Adapted from a recipe on the Simply Great Meals Recipe Club website , Mmm, these are great! Very fudgy and yummy! Imade half the recipe and got 10 muffins out of that, which were enjoyed immensely used 1/4 c spelt flour and the rest whole spelt flour Since I like my muffins chocolatey, I decided to add 1/8 c mini semi sweet morsels and in the end that was the perfect amount for me Had I not used those, I think the muffins would have been more of a health food type muffin, this way they were decadent Since I was out of eggs, used a flax egg and I also took one of the reviewers advise and pureed the apple with the beets That worked out nicely THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this great recipe with us, bluemoon!Made and reviewed for the Romantic event in the photo forum February 2012
