Pleasant President Day!

I had one of the best days today filled with things I love. I decided to,change up my workout this week and do three full body workouts. This is way out of comfort zone. As long as I can remember I have always done a couple of muscle groups or individual muscle groups per workouts. But my goal for my life is to have to pressure and go with that feels right. It was a fabulous workout! Since the sun was shining and I had the time i decided to take the pup for a walk no time frame or speed just a pleasant walk in the sunshine what a way to brighten anyone’s spirit.

And of course maybe a little baking. At first a little voice in my head keep telling me not to bake that I wouldn’t be able to handle the food. But I really listened deep inside and did what gives me joy and happiness

I like this recipe because it make one muffin. I ended up doubling the recipe and made two muffins since I wanted to bring one to my coworker to try.

Pumpkin Muffin

2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
3 tablespoons whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1 tablespoon almond milk

Mix all ingredients put in a muffin pan and bake at 350 for 15-18 minutes

Perfect breakfast with a piece of fruit.

Since I had pumpkin to use I have been looking at this recipe

I have a love hate relationship with yeast dough. Even with this recipe I continue to struggle with getting the dough to rise. I know this dough did not rise like it should have I just went with it. Nothing a little sugar glaze couldn’t fix. But I will be visit this recipe again and get the light fluffy dough next time. But for now some will have to eat this and hubby didn’t seem to mind.

This was pleasant president day!
