GASP!! A pre-mixed box!!!

This summer I have had the luxury of having the summer off. It has been nice being able to spend time with the girls and the time to make new things in my kitchen. Instead of rushing off for the morning commute, I make a hot breakfast for the girls. A personal favorite of the summer has been muffins. They are portable and tasty. Most of the time I can make the muffins from scratch but today was a different story. Everyone it seems woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Between the whining, bickering, and scowls I was already done by 8:30 AM.

Baby A Giving me the I want Food Now Face

I was not going to give up my muffin quest this morning, when the pantry gods led me to this box of Market Basket Gluten Free Quick Bread and Muffin Mix. Adding a quick few ingredients and I had yummy tasty muffins in less time than it took for the last temper tantrum to end.

Mom on the Run's Quick Dairy/Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 1 Box of Quick Bread/Muffin Mix
  • 1/2 cup shredded zucchini

  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips

    Instructions:

    Preheat over to 350 degrees. Line muffin pan with cupcake papers. To a large bowl add Muffin Mix, zucchini, applesauce, eggs, vanilla, and almond milk. Mix until all ingredients are incorporated with each other.

    Once all ingredients are mixed together stir in chocolate chips. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter into each of the muffin tins.

Bake for 25 minutes or until toothpick comes out free of batter. Let cool and serve to your hungry family. Everyone loved them.

I do not regret my decision to use a box of premeasured mix. My motive behind making muffins from scratch is the ability to control sugar and other ingredients that I don't necessarily want in my muffins. This box had better than usual nutritional stats and honestly on a morning like I had simple was best. When life gives you lemons….use a box and make lemonade.

TGIF!
