Blueberry Bran Muffins:
1 c. white flour
1/3 c. whole wheat flour
3/4 c. wheat bran
1/3 c. plus 1 T. brown sugar
2 t. baking powder
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. cinnamon
1 egg( separate the yolk and white and beat the white till fluffy with a fork)
1/4 c. molasses
1 t. vanilla
2 T. canola oil
1 c. buttermilk
1 c. blueberries, fresh or frozen

1. preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a twelve cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2. mix wet and dry ingredients in separate bowls.
3. stir dry ingredients into wet just till moistened then fold in the blueberries, stirring as little as possible.
4. spoon batter into muffin cups and bake for 18 - 20 min. (test with tooth pick and do not over bake)
5. cool on wire wrack. ( Or cool in the microwave to keep them moist. My sister did this when we were younger to keep the muffins moist or to soften muffins that had been over baked in the first place.)

I got this recipe from joyofbaking.com ,a website that Austin found for me.
After making the orange flax bran muffins I wanted more so have been looking up other bran muffin recipes. I made these yesterday and can't stop eating them! They also smell soooo good when baking!
Next week I am making Banana Oat Bran Muffins and if they are good I will post that recipe too!
I am getting good at typing one handed while nursing Alyce. :)

Honey Curry Baked Chicken

3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized chunks

1 stick of butter 

1/2 c. honey

2 T. prepared mustard

1 t. salt

1-2 T. curry powder

Chopped peanuts and sweetened coconut flakes for garnish

White sticky rice ( a 2 cups of uncooked rice batch)

Place chicken in a 13x9 in. baking dish.

Melt butter and mix in rest of ingredients.

Pour sauce sauce over chicken.

Cover pan with foil and bake 1 1/4 hours at 350.

Remove from oven and stir to brake apart chicken chunks.

Serve over sticky white rice.

This recipe is from my Aunt and she says she puts the rice on a big platter  and puts the chicken and sauce on top and serves it that way. The sauce looks runny but when it soaks into the rice it is perfect! We really liked this dish!

When I made this I cut the recipe in half and it made 3 healthy (generous ) servings.

Garnish with chopped peanuts and coconut flakes.
