eggless banana muffins
Soft and moist Banana Muffins topped with crunchy low calorie pistachios. Egg free and Butter free delicious muffins.

Ingredients:
Ripe Bananas - 3 large
Whole Wheat Flour - 1 cup
All Purpose Flour/Maida - 1 cup
Light Brown Sugar - 1 cup
Sour Cream - 1/2 cup
Whole Milk - 1/2 cup
Olive Oil - 1/4 cup
Baking Soda - 3/4 tsp
Baking Powder - 1/4 tsp
Ground Cinnamon/Dalchini Powder - 1/4 tsp
Ground Nutmeg/Jaiphal Powder - 1/8 tsp
Salt - 1/4 tsp
Pistachios (roughly chopped) - about 2 tbsp

How to bake Egg free and Butter free Banana Muffins:
  • In a mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients - whole wheat flour, all purpose flour, light brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt.  Mix well with a spoon.
  • Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. Line the muffin pan with cupcake liners or spray the muffin pan with cooking spray.  I used a 12 muffin pan.
  • In a big mixing bowl, add peeled bananas. Mash them well. Now add sour cream, milk and olive oil. If sour cream is not available, you can use thick yogurt/curds. Mix all the ingredients well using a hand mixer/blender. Lastly, add all the dry ingredients. Mix with a spatula or spoon, just enough to form a lumpy batter. Do not over mix.

  • Pour the batter in the muffin pan, about 3/4th full. Top each one with chopped pistachios or any other nuts or oats. Bake for 20 - 22 minutes or till an inserted toothpick comes out clear. Freeze the leftover muffins and microwave for couple minutes when needed.

Naval Kol Bhaji / Kohlrabi Stir-fry

Green Kohlrabi called as Navalkol in Marathi and Navilkosu in Kannada, belongs to the cabbage family.  My Mom used to make this stir fry very often.  Just like cabbage, this vegetable in available in two colors - green and purple.  I was quite hesitant about the purple one, as I haven't seen that back in India.  Anyway, I picked the green bulbs and Navalkohl Bhaji with Chana Dal was part of our healthy vegetarian meal today.

Indian Dal / Lentils

Lentils, known as Dal are a staple in an Indian diet, especially vegetarian. For me, dal is comfort food. 5 different dal varieties - Toor, Moong, Chana, Masoor and Urad are commonly used in Indian sweet and savory delicacies. You can cook dal with just one kind or a mix of two or more. I generally cook dal with 1:1 Toor and Moong dals. But then, we like Panchmel or Panchratna Dal too, which is made of all five. Most dal recipes have Toor dal as the primary ingredient. It is also known as Toovar or Arhar dal or Split Pigeon Peas . Some of our family favorite dal recipes are Dalitoy (Konkani Dal)  Tadka Dal Among all lentils, moong dal and masoor dal take lesser time to cook. Moong dal is also known as Split Green Gram or Split Mung Bean . Moong dal is also used in making sweet dishes like Mung Dal Kheer  Mung Dal Puranpoli Chana dal is also known as Split Bengal Gram or Split Chickpeas . Chana Dal takes a little more time to cook as compared to toor dal....
