Day 14 of New Year Strict Challenge

The store was out of almond flour, so I made my own.  I like the idea of making my own almond flour.  It's cheaper AND i kind of like the "grainy" texture it adds to things.  I used to it to make a modified version of the banana muffins.  Here is the recipe I am now using:

Banana-Apple Muffins
             Yield 8-10 muffins
1 bananna
1/2 an apple
3 eggs
1/4 cup of coconut oil
1 TBS of cinnamon
1/2 tsp of nutmeg or allspice
1/2 tsp of ginger (optional)
1 vanilla bean or tablespoon of vanilla extract
1 & 1/2 cup of almond flour

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  In a food processor/blender, blend the apple until its in pea size pieces (if you want a chunky batter, you can leave them larger)  Add the banana and blend until creamy.  Add in all of your spices& blend.  (you can taste at this point to see if you want to add more of a particular spice).    Add in eggs & oil.  Blend for a minute.  Add in the almond flour and blend until everything seems mixed well.  Pour into cupcake liners on a muffin pan.  Bake for 20-25 minutes.  Use a toothpick to test for doneness.

Breakfast:  2 bannana-apple muffins &10 slices of bacon

Dinner:  Steak, salad, sauteed onions &  mushrooms, zucchini

Desert:  1/2 apple, tablespoon of almond butter

I miss the summer and farmers markets and veggies.  I feel like all I eat is meat.  I want more veggies & its really frustrating to look at the selection in the stores.
