Received 20:29:06 on 07/17/91, Posting # 37 ***** Subject: VEGAN muffins From: Jerome Grimmer From: ngrjn@milton.u.washington.edu (V Nagarajan) Subject: Delicious Vegan Muffins Here's a recipe: This is somewhat challenging as I have left out the amounts of the ingredients; personally, I prefer to experiment. Flour (wheat or any other of your favorite kind) Sweetener Date pieces/ currants/ raisins Soy milk / your favorite juice Baking powder (1 tsp for about 6 medium sized muffins) Oil (I prefer canola oil as it has very little flavor of its own) - very important for proper baking and making sure that the muffins don't stick to the pan or paper cups. Add about a tsp per muffin. Mix all the above in a bowl until the batter is slightly runny - it should be just thin enough to be dripped into cups with a spoon. Bake at 450 degrees until the top has a burnt brown look. Cool and remove from the cups. You can also treat yourself by adding a tad bit of toasted caraway seeds (!); this last addition is known to increase your intelligence, give you wisdom and make you attractive and wealthy. ------------------------------- But for the sake of some little | __ o | mouthful of flesh we deprive a | ___ __o __ /7_ | soul of the sun and light, and |___ -\<, __ ~\/\ | of that proportion of life and | ....O/ O !_ | time it had been born into the | Nagarajan | world to enjoy. ------------------------------- - Plutarch, Moralia. *****
