Cooking pumpkin muffins with oatmeal and semolina
1. Peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds and chop. You can do this with a food processor, or use a medium grater. If the rind is difficult to cut, then microwave the vegetable for a while. Then it will soften and it will be easy to remove it. I draw your attention to the fact that we use fresh pumpkin. However, if you wish, you can boil it or bake it, and then mashed it.
2. Transfer the pumpkin mixture to a mixing bowl, add orange zest and honey. This recipe uses dried zest, but you can use fresh or just orange juice. In addition, to taste and desire, instead of an orange, a lemon or lime is suitable.
3. Pour the oatmeal into the chopper.
4. Beat the flakes until crumbly.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine oat flour, semolina, baking soda, and starch.
6. Stir dry ingredients.
7. Pour dry ingredients to pumpkin mass, add egg yolks and put butter at room temperature. Therefore, remove it from the refrigerator beforehand so that it becomes soft. I do not recommend melting the butter, because the baked goods will become harder. Pour the egg whites into a clean, dry container.
8. Stir the food and leave it for 15 minutes, but more is possible. During this time, the semolina and oatmeal will disperse and swell.
9. Beat the whites well with a mixer until peaks. They should develop into a stable white foam. Transfer them to the dough and knead the dough slowly.
10. Divide the dough into the muffin tins. Molds can be paper, silicone, ceramic or iron. There is no need to lubricate paper and silicone, and grease iron and ceramic with butter so that it is easy to extract baked goods from them.
Send the product to a heated oven up to 180 ° C for 40 minutes. Check the degree of their readiness with a wooden match, it should be free of sticking, i.e. dry.
