Spoon the mixture into silicone molds. Bake at 180° for 30-35 minutes. Give your muffins a snowy, festive touch by dusting them with sweetener. Whether you're watching your Syns or simply looking for a flavorful treat, these muffin variations are sure to satisfy your cravings. Experiment with these recipes, and enjoy a delicious burst of flavor with every bite! Tips: Use Fresh Ingredients: Ensure that your ingredients, especially the eggs, are fresh. Fresh ingredients contribute to better flavor and texture.  Incorporate Whole Grain Flours: For added nutritional value, consider replacing a portion of the oats with whole grain flour. This can introduce a nuttier flavor and additional fiber. Silicone Molds for Easy Removal: Using silicone molds not only makes it easy to remove the muffins but also reduces the need for greasing. It's a convenient option for a hassle-free baking experience. Adjust Baking Time: Keep an eye on the muffins as they bake. Baking times can vary depending on your oven, so start checking for doneness around the 25-minute mark to prevent over-baking. Add Nuts or Seeds: For an extra crunch and nutritional boost, consider adding chopped nuts or seeds to the batter. Almonds, walnuts, or chia seeds can be great choices. Choose Quality Mincemeat: If you're making the Slimming World mince pies variation, opt for high-quality mincemeat to elevate the flavor profile of your muffins. Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of apples or other fruits in the apple & cinnamon muffins. Each variety brings its own unique sweetness and texture. Serve with a Dollop of Yogurt: When serving, consider adding a dollop of fat-free natural yogurt on top. It complements the muffins and adds a creamy element.

Yorkshire pudding wrap Recipe

Yorkshire pudding wrap Recipe Tuck into something tasty this Monday, and every day, because good food means good mood. Good food with Slimming World looks something like this Yorkshire Pudding Wrap – not only is it tasty, it contains protein, iron and B vitamins which are all important for brain function and mood which might be just what we all need on this Monday About Time: Prep Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 25 mins Total Time: 25 mins Yield Serves 2 Slimming World: 4 Syncs per wrap Ingredients: 40g plain flour 50ml skimmed milk 3 medium eggs, beaten Low-calorie cooking spray 1 large lean beef steak (or 2 small ones), with visible fat removed 1 medium carrot, grated Handful of watercress Mustard powder made up with water, to taste Instructions: Combine the flour, milk, 20ml water, and beaten eggs in a jug. Whisk the mixture until it becomes smooth and free of lumps. Season with a pinch of salt and let it chill for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 220°C/fan 200°C/gas 7. Use low-calorie cooking spray to coat a medium-sized non-stick baking tray (approximately 30cm x 20cm), then place it in the oven to heat. Once hot, remove the tray and swiftly pour in the batter, tilting it to ensure even coverage of the base. Return the tray to the oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the batter is puffed up and lightly browned. While the batter is baking, heat a non-stick frying pan over high heat, and spray it with low-calorie cooking spray. Cook the steak according to your preference (approximately 2 minutes on each side for rare, 3 minutes for medium, and 4 minutes for well done). Wrap the cooked steak in foil and allow it to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing it to your desired thickness. Transfer the Yorkshire pudding from the tin to a cutting board, slice it in half, and top each half with grated carrot, watercress, and sliced beef. Drizzle with mustard, season lightly, and roll up each half to create two wraps. Tip: For a complete roast dinner experience, prepare some gravy using gravy granules (1 level tsp is 1 Syn) with boiling water and drizzle it over the wraps before rolling them up Ensure that the flour, milk, water, and egg mixture is well-whisked to achieve a smooth and lump-free batter. Preheat the baking tray before pouring in the batter to help create a crispy base. For a juicy and flavorful steak, season it with your favorite spices before cooking. Allow the steak to rest after cooking; this ensures that the juices redistribute, keeping the meat tender. Use fresh and vibrant vegetables. Explore different fillings such as sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, or a variety of greens to add more texture and flavor to the wraps. Serve the wraps with a side salad, coleslaw, or roasted vegetables to create a well-rounded and satisfying meal.
