As you all know, I am loving my Christmas bakery! I love the smell of vanilla and cinnamon. I love to fill all kind of boxes and cookie jars with the fresh baked goods. I love to empty those boxes again \u2013 yummy. I simply love the traditional \u201cGutsel\u201d-recipes from my granny! Containing a whole lot of butter, and plenty of sugar. I am also not able to make any compromise, hence still using regular (white and non-whole wheat) flour\u2026<\/p>\n

However, my boys, when they come home from school, they have a craving for \u201csomething\u201d. In detail they would really like to have Christmas cookies, which is understandable but leaves them with a sugar shock despite some long lasting real energy. So, they need something healthier\u2026<\/p>\n

Since I have already told you about my winter favorites \u201chomemade chicken broth\u201d and \u201cginger\u201d, there is a recipe with my third favorite winter ingredient: \u201cturmeric\u201d (a.k.a. curcuma)! The bright yellow of this spice lays a smile on the dullest winter day!<\/p>\n

Turmeric is quit an all-rounder. You might run across it on my blog a couple of times in the next weeks.<\/p>\n

Today: the healthy muffin snack!<\/p>\n

To be honest with you, so that you don\u2019t feel cheated \u2013 the muffins were semi-successful with our boys! Our oldest son, a gourmet, who eats almost everything liked them. The two young ones took a hearty bite just to come to the devastating verdict \u2013 \u201cdoesn\u2019t taste good\u201d. Sigh\u2026 They only peeled off the crunchy oatmeal from the outside of the muffin and didn\u2019t pay any attention to the rest of it. Hence, a fruit dish for it is then. I really did like the muffins, though. So I gave away the muffins to a friend of mine who also really liked them. That is why the recipe made it here\u2026<\/p>\n

So try it out. For me it\u2019s also a great breakfast alternative, if you want to eat something different once in a while. Also great for winter-trips into the snow\u2026 Delicious!<\/p>\n
