Chapter 63 ★Eat muffins on June 1st

A few years ago, after a routine blood test, doctors discovered that both my husband and I had elevated cholesterol.After some analysis, we decided to reduce our consumption of red meat.And, we started patronizing oat bran stands. Instead of the bacon and eggs we used to have for breakfast, we had blueberry oatcakes with maple syrup.And, Gibbs has also begun experimenting with oat bran muffins to develop his favorite low-fat flavor.So we started using oatmeal muffins instead of bread.In this way of eating, our cholesterol dropped to the standard range within a few months, and, as an added bonus, we also lost weight.

We eat about a dozen double muffins a week.The method of muffins is to add all the ingredients to the cream, stir for about ten minutes, and then put them in the oven for fifteen minutes. These muffins can be eaten with some cereal or fruit for breakfast, served with a salad for lunch, or as a low-calorie, high-fiber snack.Not only are these muffins delicious, they're also nutritious.We hope that one day, we can know that our cholesterol index has dropped again, and at the same time, we can continue to enjoy this simple and healthy food. Gibbs' Oatmeal Muffins Menu 2 1/4 cups oat bran

1 spoon of baking powder 1/4 cup sugar or syrup 2 spoons chopped almonds handful of raisins or dried blueberries 1/4 cup chopped cocoa nuts 1/4 cup skim milk two eggs 2 bunches of bananas Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl, then mix with other ingredients in a fruit and vegetable blender until all ingredients are fully combined.Then, put the beaten mixture into the muffin mold, leaving a little space for some toppings, if you put blueberries, you can easily put them in to fill the mold. Next, turn the temperature of the oven to 250°C and bake until the upper layer is slightly browned (about ten minutes).In this way, about a dozen muffins can be made.

When the muffins cooled, we bagged the muffins and kept them in the freezer.When we want to eat, take out the muffins, heat them in the microwave for about 30 seconds, and they are ready to eat.
