When it comes to feeding my triathlete, I’m always trying to come up with meals and snacks that meet all of his needs and mine, too. They have to be tasty, nutritious, relatively easy to make, and made with as much real food as possible. We both happen to love Nuttzo, which is a medley of 7 nuts and seeds, organic of course. So, I decided to put it in a muffin that we could have for breakfast or anytime on the go. Here’s my Muffin Recipe That Fuels.
Muffins that fuel all ready to eat. Made with Nuttzo.
Makes 12 muffins
INGREDIENTS
In a large mixing bowl combine the following:
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (you can use whole wheat flour, but I like pastry for a lighter muffin)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
In a smaller bowl combine:
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 cup milk (we use whole but you can use your choice)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
Mix wet mixture into dry and then add:
- 3/4 cup Nuttzo of your choice
One of my favorite ingredients – Nuttzo!
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate pieces (optional)
Almost there…

All I can say is YUM!
