Step-by-step cooking of oatmeal muffins with chocolate and cherries on a steam bath, recipe with photo:
1. Pour kefir into a deep bowl and add baking soda.
Note: You can use commercially available baking powder instead of baking soda.
2. Mix kefir with soda with a mixer. It will immediately begin to foam and bubbles will form on the surface.
Note: use kefir at room temperature. Therefore, remove it from the refrigerator in advance, otherwise it will not react with baking soda. All subsequent products should also be warm, so as not to cool the temperature of kefir.
3. Add the eggs to the kefir and whisk the liquid ingredients until smooth.
4. Next, add oatmeal with sugar and a pinch of salt and stir. If desired, grind the flakes in a coffee grinder to a flour consistency.
5. Grind the chocolate into pieces or grate on a coarse grater and add to the dough.
6. Remove pits from cherries and send to dough. If they are frozen, be sure to thaw and drain the water first.
7. Stir the dough. Its consistency should be sparse, because during the cooking process, the oatmeal will increase in volume by 2-2.5 times and will absorb all the moisture.
8. Pour the dough into portioned silicone tins for baking small muffins. If you use metal molds, first grease them with a thin layer of vegetable oil or fat.
9. Send the products to the steam bath. If you don't have a steamer, build a steam bath yourself. Put water in a saucepan and boil. Place a strainer or colander on top so that it does not come into contact with the water. Place the muffins in a colander.
10. Oatmeal muffins with chocolate and cherries, cover and cook on the steam bath for 10-15 minutes. When all the liquid is absorbed into the flakes, the products are considered finished.
If you will cook dessert in the oven, put it only in a hot oven and bake at 180 degrees for 20 minutes.
Remove the finished baked goods from the molds after cooling and, if desired, garnish with powdered sugar or pour over with chocolate icing.
