Cookie Muffins--An Awesome Grab and Go Snack

[ChefTessBakeresse]

A cookie-muffin is basically a muffin top. It's a muffin batter made using a little less liquid.! I must share the joy and convenience of these little love buttons. Mmmm. Love buttons. These are moist and chewy. They're loaded with wholesome goodness, no additives or colors, or junk. Simply put...they are the best of all things organic. Homemade...and very inexpensive to make. You will need the homemade baking mix made with whole wheat pastry flour(http://cheftessbakeresse.blogspot.co...-bisquick.html). I mill my own flour, but don't feel like you have to do so. There are some amazing whole grain flours out there.

Chef Tess' Jam-Filled Cookie-Muffins

1 cup homemade baking mix
2 cups low fat organic granola ( my granola http://cheftessbakeresse.blogspot.co...st-cereal.html
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup honey or agave nectar
1/2 cup milk or buttermilk
sugar free jam of your choice

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Directions: Combine all ingredients except jam until just mixed. Lightly spray a cookie sheet with non-stick coating. scoop 1/3 cup cookie batter onto cookie sheet, about 1 inch apart in a mound. With your finger, hallow out a hole in the center, being careful not to go all the way through the dough. Dot a tsp or two of jam in the hole. Continue until all the piles of dough have a dot of jam in the middle. Bake 12-15 minutes, until lightly brown.

We keep these in our cookie tin and the kids grab them as a snack. Mr. Putt-Putt likes the because they...how do I put this..."Keep him regular". Not that any of you needed to know that little tid-bit. But...there it is.

There you go! Make some regular cookie muffins. Smoooches!
