Hey everyone welcome back to the urban Pharmacy kitchen it’s me Stacy heiney your holistic nutritionist plant-based coach and Beauty Mentor I’ve got my sidekick and I’m not supposed to introduce him he’s going to introduce himself he told me that that’s what he wants to do so hello I’m going you’re.

Going okay so we are going to make what are we making today muffins what kind zucchini muffins zucchini muffins and we are using one of the gargantuan zucchinis from our farm if you don’t know we have an organic farm we sell the produce at the local market and it’s a super fun time but we’ve got a lot of.

Zucchini and usually the larger ones are better for muffins and bread just because they can tend to be a little bit more tough you can also take these this the this one I’ve already cut off each end and you can make boats out of them and cut them in half and scoop out the inside and lay them with the cut side up and.

Bake them and fill them up with like lentils and tomatoes sundried tomatoes and make like a Savory stuffing and you can have stuffed zucchini boats then you can smother marinara sauce on top of it it’s so good you should absolutely try it okay but anyway we are going to use zucchini today and we have to do whoop.

Whoops we have to do a little bit of preparation because this is going to have shredded zucchini that we are going to actually like ring out so that it gets less wet so that it makes a better baked good okay so let’s do that we have our box grater we can totally use um the big side you could use the big side to.

Make larger shreds like this if that’s what you like I think that that would be better for like a bread situation but um my sidekick is feating his pre-breakfast snack because he just got to eat you know what I mean but I think cuz your tummy hurts cuz you’re hungry if you want a better texture and a better bite use the fine shred blade on your box.

Grater or on your food processor to make muffins again with the bread you could probably get away with a larger shred because you’re going to be cutting it up into pieces of bread but when you take a bite of muffin you don’t want like big shreds of zucchini coming through so Cohen is showing you a spice that we ground this morning fresh what is.

That wellow it’s right there the bag of it were you looking for the bag cardamom it’s black cardamom and and we got this at the International Grocery Store um it’s a very unique spice that is typically used in like pumpkin pie Blends and apple pie spice Blends um it’s very earthy kind of like.

Nutmeg you know has that very distinct flavor but pairs very well with cinnamon and we’re going to definitely put those into our muffins thing so I probably should have pre-shredded this before because this is taking forever but it gives you a really great workout great arm workout and Mommy why did you not put.

The the the holder because I’m smart like that why did you not put there’s like a holder that goes to the bottom of this box grater and it makes it catches all the stuff that you grind you know that you shred which is awesome okay we are aiming for about 2 cups of shredded.

Zucchini after we squeeze it dry so I’m going to get one of our little tea towels here this is just a tea towel from Ikea they get you know we use them in the kitchen a lot yeah castle castle zucchini Castle hold on hold on there’s typically a lot that goes on the inside of the this box grater so what we’re going to do is we’re going to take.

This why take why did you make a mess and not use the it’s fine it’s fine we’re going to take this and we’re going to put it onto our tea towel you could use a nutmilk straining bag you could use lots of different things but we’re just going to use this tea tow I get these from Ikea super affordable and I’m just going to ring it.

Out over the sink to get the excess moisture out and quite a bit of moisture comes out now you could totally use the rest of the the liquid in like a soup base that would be phenomenal and a way to not waste your vitamins and minerals that are coming out of the zucchini cuz it’s essentially making like a zucchini.

Juice you know what I mean you know what I mean but mine’s going down the drain today sadly okay so I squeezed it out lots of liquid came out and now we have our rung out zucchini in our Bowl all right oh W I’m so used to I used to work.

In bakeries and I would just sweep all my food onto the floor because we would we would sweep so often so if you ever watch me cooking and I’m like going really fast you might find me going like this with all my crumbs because you just sweep right afterward kind of messy kind of messy of.

Me but that’s okay okay so is that how bakeries did it no that’s just how I did it in the bakery I made my own rules okay so now we are going to do some oats in the blender was it was it only you no there was other people with me we’re going to take our whole oat or not they’re not whole oats I could take.

Whole oats because I just bought some whole oat Groats um from my friend at Cold Brook Farms um but anyways we are going to use rolled oats three cups and we’re just going to make our own flour in our Vitamix I love the stainless steel container for the.

Vitamix don’t Do’s going to stop face with raw oats okay anyways um I love the stainless steel Vitamix because you can put hot liquids in it and not have to worry about any Plastics bleeing into your food very important so I’m just going to Blitz this I don’t really want it to become.

Like a super super fine powder flow I want it to be a little bit textured because that gives us just a better nutrient profile hungry Budd okay so we have a little bit of a grind here I’m making oatmeal myat okay so there’s still some like big.

Pieces of rolled oats and that’s okay we’re just going to have slightly textured muffins which is fine it doesn’t have to be like you know ens or little dubby because we don’t need that high of a glycemic rush you know the the more fine your flour is the higher your glycemic Rush is going to be so anyways now we’re.

Going to toss in baking soda baking powder and sour sock here’s another note when you’re making flour make sure that you’re doing it in a dried blender and not a blender that you use for a morning drink because the it’s going to stick in there I want to okay now we’re going to we’ll do a drink later now we’re going to mix some of our.

Wet ingredients and our sweet ingredients so for that we need a banana can you grab a banana please where’s the banana I had gotten a banana out for this recipe here how about you use this one so we’re going to need a banana in the blender okay you put that in I’m going to get the dates we’re going to do a cup.

Of mwel dates M dates making a mess making a 64 cups of 74 ingredients okay 64 cups of 74 ingredients all right so about a cup of mle dates I don’t get the ones that are already oops can you put that in the blender instead I don’t get the ones that already have the pits pulled out of them because I want to inspect.

Each date and make sure there’s like no mold inside of them you know what I mean there mold in that one where just kidding you you Joker okay so one cup of pitted of pitted mle dates into your blender then we need some soy milk more oats excuse you excuse you um we are going to do soy.

Milk soy is actually cancer protective please look at the science organic always yeah this is soy no it’s not that’s those you can eat it okay so we get the unsweetened organic soy from West soy West life I think there’s another brand there’s a maybe one other brand out there that doesn’t.

Have that is you know life estate free here measure um but it’s cancer protective especially against the hormonal cancers like breast cancer and prostate cancer okay that’s enough thank you and oh so.

Like we’re going to blend that all up and that’s going to sweeten our muffin we’ve got to use dry ingredients though so baking powder going to do a tablespoon up is it done I don’t know you tell me when it’s smooth a teaspoon of baking.

Soda just kind of make sure that you’re putting the dry ingredients on top with the flour so you can kind of mix those together before it hits the zucchini and you don’t want like clumps of baking powder now I’m going to use burlap and Barrel Royal cinnamon best cinnamon ever I’m using about a tablespoon of that I will link that because it’s like my face.

Uh the best like he tested for heavy metals like small farms amazing spices amazing spices we get a lot of spices from burlap and Barrel and they have a lot of saltree versions as well which we really appreciate okay and then we ground that fresh cardamom that’s enough col that’s hard on the blender okay.

So yeah you were you were puling it okay okay now we’re going to mix this all together you got to Smoothie where’s the big where’s the stir we need a stir that cam Mom oh my gosh it’s so strong it’s so strong just it smells like essential oils it does it smells like essential oils.

Yeah okay oh it’s so strong so we’re just kind of tossing around okay okay okay okay get that all kind of coated careful don’t to not to flick it out of the bowl is there raisins in here no you could put raisins in it though I there goes the sweet stuff o this is a.

Good idea or the good time time to use my new little spatula okay got this fancy Vitamix spatula from the National Health Association conference that we go to every year it’s amazing they have a kids program the kiddos get to make yummy healthy delicious plant-based Foods you.

Loved the kid program yeah they get to go swimming do different activities there a swimming while the parents are learning about nutrition nutrition science the and yes we just love it lots of our favorite doctors are always there excuse me excuse me Cohen’s going to be up on.
