Delicious homemade maple cinnamon muffins that are perfect for breakfast or a snack. The combination of maple syrup and cinnamon creates a warm and cozy flavor.
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1 tbsp baking powder. 1/2 tsp salt. 1 tsp ground cinnamon. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed. 1/4 cup pure maple syrup. 1/4 cup milk. 1 large egg. 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Instructions: Warm your oven up to 375 F 190 C and put paper liners in a muffin tin. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon in a large bowl with a whisk. Mix the cold butter cubes into the dry ingredients. As you work the butter into the dry ingredients, either use a pastry cutter or your fingers to make it look like coarse crumbs. Add the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to a different bowl, and mix them together using a whisk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix them together just until they are combined. A few lumps are fine; don't mix it too much. Fill up each muffin tin cup about two thirds of the way to the top with muffin batter. In a hot oven, bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. First, let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Maple Cinnamon Muffins that you made yourself!

Socca is a tasty flatbread made from chickpea flour that doesn't contain any grains or gluten. It comes from the south of France and can be used in a lot of different ways. This vegan version has cumin, paprika, and, if you want, parsley added for extra flavor.
Ingredients: 1 cup chickpea flour. 1 cup water. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder. 1/2 teaspoon paprika. 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley optional.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 450F 230C. Mix chickpea flour, water, olive oil, salt, pepper, cumin powder, and paprika in a bowl until the mixture is smooth. Allow the flour to fully soak up the water in the batter by letting it sit for at least 30 minutes. Use olive oil to grease a cast-iron skillet or baking dish, then put it in a hot oven for a few minutes to warm up. Carefully take the hot skillet out of the oven and pour the batter into it, making sure it covers the whole surface. Put the socca in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until it sets and the edges turn golden brown. Cut the socca into wedges, and if you want, sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve hot.
