Stamping is addictive




'Just can't quit it, just can't quit it.'
I've carved 38 individual lino stamps the last couple of days
Whoohoo!

Straight from the oven




My oh so eager little helper!


Recipe

1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 cup muscovado sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup raisins
3 tbs oil
1 cup oats
1/3 cup milk
1 jumbo egg
4 medium carrots, finely grated
1 ripe banana, mashed

Combine all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, add the raisins, banana and carrots.  Mix well.  Add the oil, egg and milk.  Mix till just combined.

Scoop 1/4 cup fulls in a prepared 12 hole muffin pan.
Baked at 190 degrees Celsius for 25 min or until a toothpick comes out clean from the middle of each muffin.

Serve warm with a knob of butter and drizzled honey.
A cuppa Rooibos serves as a great companion!
