| Sherm's Megamuffins (18 muffins) Canola- or olive-oil based spray 4 cups frozen strawberries 2 gm. calcium supplement 30 mg. zinc supplement 1 tbsp. potassium based baking powder (no sodium) 1 tbsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. ginger 1 tsp. nutmeg 1 tsp. powdered pure stevia extract (sweetener) I cup rice bran 1 cup soy protein isolate powder ¾ cup flax meal 5 tbsp. brewer's yeast ¾ cup psyllium husk ½ cup wheat bran ¼ cup raw wheat germ 3 tbsp. raw sunflower seeds (whole or ground) ⅓ cup nonfat dry milk ¾ cup nonfat plain yogurt ½ cup water 3 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate 3 large egg whites 1 large egg 1 medium carrot ¼ medium avocado 2 cups dehydrated unsweetened blueberries 3 tbsp. raisins (or cherries) Preheat oven to 325. Spray muffin trays (18 medium-size muffin forms, preferably nonstick) lightly with canola or olive oil-based spray like Pam. Use a paper towel to spread the oil evenly and absorb excess. Defrost the strawberries in the microwave for 3 minutes on full power (to avoid destroying your blender). If the supplements are not already in powdered form, crush them to a fine powder. Thoroughly mix supplements with baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and stevia extract in a small bowl. Set aside. Mix together the rice bran, soy protein, flax meal, brewer's yeast, psyllium husk, wheat bran, raw wheat germ, raw sunflower seeds, and nonfat dry milk in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly and break up any lumps (the soy protein is particularly prone to form lumps). Add the set aside dry ingredients to the rice bran mixture and mix thoroughly until ingredients are uniformly distributed. Set aside. In a blender, mix the strawberries, yogurt, water, orange juice concentrate, egg whites and eggs, carrot, and avocado. Run blender on high to create a smooth texture. Pour the blender mix into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly for about five minutes by hand until uniform. Make sure there are no dry spots left. Finally, add in the dehydrated blueberries and raisins (or cherries) and mix until well distributed. This must be done last because otherwise bits of dry powder will hide inside the crevasses of the dried fruit. Quickly distribute the now-rising dough evenly into 18 medium-size muffin forms. Make sure that every muffin ends up with some of the dried fruit in it. Bake at 325 degrees for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand until cool enough to touch (2 to 3 minutes). Then take muffins out of muffin tins and place on a cooling rack for at least 10 minutes. Pack in ziploc freezer bags to retain moisture. Keep refrigerated or frozen. To eat, microwave frozen muffins 60 seconds on high. (We found that they taste better after freezing and microwaving than they do when eaten hot out of the oven.)
