Wheat and Oat Muffin


Here goes my first entry to the blog world.As  always an 'Indian Mind' thinks,start any new venture with a 'Sweet',just following the paths I wanted to post something sweet to all the sweet tooth out there.Blogged,went thru my cooking books,the final effort was I landed on  Indian Sweets.My DH and DD do not  like sweets much unlike me. I was skeptical about the extra calories added by the sugar and ghee in Indian sweets.Made a trip to 'Wegmans' ,to ease off by just buying a boxed brownie or muffin mix,put it together and post it.
Back of my mind I wanted to post something I made from scratch.Finally influenced and inspired  by Dr.Oetker's organic Oatmeal muffin mix ,I came up with my own version. You must be wondering the title calls for a muffin and the picture is no closer to that.I couldn't find my muffin pan(been a longtime I baked,oops ,I never go beyond making  puff or whip up  brownie mix for my daughter in terms of baking),sobaked out as a cake .Just poured a little bit of the mix in a 'Stainless steel gulab jamoon cup' for my toddler daughter,as she would eat a cake only under the name and shape of 'cup cake'.

Again the  challenge--as the original recipe counted for an egg, motivated by all the vegan/vegetarian blogs,Used applesauce,it turned out very soft and spongy.
