Answer 3

Here is a recipie for you....


Ginger Bran Muffins

6 Muffins
This old-fashioned recipe makes a muffin batter that can be kept in the refrigerator so you can make 1 or 2 muffins at a time. Or you can make them all at once and freeze them. They thaw in just a few minutes if left on the kitchen counter.

Ingredients:
3/4 cup bran cereal (not flakes)
1/4 cup boiling water
2 tbsp olive oil or canola oil
1 tbsp sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 tbsp raisins or other chopped dried fruit
1/2 cup unbleached flour
1 tsp baking soda

Instructions:
Pour boiling water over the bran cereal in a mixing bowl. Stir

to mix and let stand 5 minutes. Add the oil, sugar, egg, buttermilk, grated ginger and raisins to the bran and mix well. In a small bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda. Stir into the bran mixture and mix well. The batter can be kept tightly covered in the refrigerator for about a week.

To bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a muffin tin if you are making all 6 muffins or place a foil muffin cup in a custard cup if you are baking just one muffin. Don't stir the batter if it has been keeping in the refrigerator. Fill the muffin tin or muffin cups 2/3 full of batter. Bake the muffins for 12 - 14 minutes or until the top springs lightly back to the touch.

Answer 6

I am also on diet and what I can eat (and am eating whenever I really really really crave sweets) is pudding. Low fat milk, sugar, pudding powder (cook for about 2 minutes). Some canned or fresh fruit. But be aware - you will crave sweets even more. Easier and better for you is to eat some fruit now and a lot of vegetables. After about 3-6 hours, the craving should stop and not return (until the next craving). I am usually craving pancakes with jam, but because of the fried part I can not have them. I hope your diet will bring the results and wish you good luck!
