Farmer's Market Finds: Blueberry Cupcakes
On another installment of "Farmer's Market Finds", our Nutrition Expedition explorers collected blueberries and raspberries at the Wednesday market :) What to make, what to make...how about a healthier version of blueberry cupcakes?! After a bit of research, I found this recipe on the Eating Well website:
We made one little tweak to the recipe, and that was using light whipped cream for frosting, instead of the complicated frosting method provided. The children were so excited to help in creating these delicious, and healthier "cupcakes". Can you guess what the secret ingredient was? Something that grows under ground, and is often mashed...mashed potatoes! What a silly thing to put in a cupcake! We even added the extra raspberries to the batter. The end result tasted more like a muffin, but they were super tasty! Check out the pictures of all the fun below:
