Ingredients
- Wet Ingredients:
- 1 x 400g can of butter beans, drained
- 2 tbsp The Chia Co. Chia Oil (or extra virgin olive oil)
- 1 cup almond milk
- 2 tsp vanilla essence
- Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups self raising flour
- 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder, vegan protein if needed
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, dairy free if needed
- 1/4 cup natural powdered sweetener
- 1/2 cup The Chia Co. Chia Seeds
- Chia Jam Ingredients
- 3 cups frozen raspberries
- 1/2 cup The Chia Co. Chia Seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease or place muffin cases into 12 muffins cups.
- To make the chia jam, heat frozen raspberries in a sauce pan on low heat until they begin to soften and break down. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup of chia seeds – keep stirring and breaking down the remaining raspberries until the ‘jam’ starts to set – place aside.
- Pour all wet ingredients into a food processor, blender until smooth.
- Place all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl, stir until combined. Make a well and pour wet batter into the mixing bowl; gently stir to combine, careful not to over mix.
- Pour roughly 1 heaped tbsp of batter into each muffin cup and spread evenly over the base.
- Place 1 tbsp of the jam into the centre of each muffin.
- Top each muffin with the remaining batter.
- Bake for 25 mins or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Allow to cool on a wire rack before serving. Can be stored in the fridge up to a week or freezer for a month.
