Preparation duration: 15 minutes

Cooking duration: 17 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup agave nectar (you might be able to use maple syrup)

1 tsp baking powder (I use aluminum-free)

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup organic cane sugar (or regular sugar)

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp fine grain sea salt

1 flax egg (1 T ground flax + 3 T warm water, mixed)

1 cup canned or fresh pumpkin

1/2 tsp ground cloves (I skipped this as I didn't have any)

1/2 tsp nutmeg

2 1/2 cups whole grain spelt flour

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup Earth Balance vegan buttery spread (Or use non-hydrogenated margarine)

Equipment:

baking paper

baking sheet

oven

microwave

whisk

bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

InstructionsPreheat oven to 350F.Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Whisk flax egg in a small bowl and set aside.In a medium sized bowl, combine the dry ingredients (spelt, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves). Set aside.In a different bowl mix the butter, sugar and agave until smooth. I melted my butter a bit in the microwave for 15 seconds first as I find the Earth Balance is easier to work with when melted slightly.Now add pumpkin, flax egg, and vanilla. Beat well.Carefully mix in dry ingredients being sure not to over mix. Spelt is broken down very quickly when mixed and you can end up with a tough batter if you over mix it. But relax it will turn out regardless! The batter will be very moist and sticky, but don’t worry.Drop the batter onto the baking sheet. I wet my fingers to slightly shape the scuffins. Pop a stick in the end if preferred to have your scuffin on a stick! I got my sticks at Bulk Barn.Sprinkle with chia seeds for a spooky, yet nutritious, effect for Halloween! You can also have fun decorating little pumpkin faces on them (great for kids!).Bake for 17 minutes or until the scuffins slightly bounce back when touched. Handle the scuffins on a stick very carefully because they are delicate. I found that I improved this by making smaller scuffins on a stick- then they weren’t as heavy!

Food Joke

There were these three brothers that were very close to each other. The brothers always went to a local bar on every Friday at 5:30 on the dot. When the brothers got married they all got married to their wifes to be on the same day and at the same place. When the brothers moved away from each other to go on with their lives with their new wife, they all promised each other that they would still go to the bar every friday at 5:30 and drink for each other. On the first Friday that the brothers were separated, the first brother went to a local bar and ordered three drinks. He took one sip from the first glass the took one sip from the second glass then from the third. He did this until all the beer was gone, then he paid the bartender and went home. This kept up for about three week before the bartender finally asked why he did that. The guy explained about the promise that he had with his brothers. The bartender said that he thought that was a very good promise to keep with each other. One day the same guy came in and asked for only two glasses of beer. The bartender thinking something awful has happened, said "I am awfully sorry about your brother." The guy not knowing anything about what the bartender was talking about said "What happened to him?" The bartender said that when he only ordered two drinks instead of three he thought that something awful had happened. The brother then said "No, nothing happened to my brother, I just decided to give up alcohol."
