Neven Maguire’s Brown Scones are full of roughage and great for breakfast

Brown scones are full of roughage and great for breakfast. And here is a good tip: you can make this mixture, shape the scones and freeze them. You can then cook the scones straight from the freezer to the oven – just give them an extra 5 minutes and make sure the scones are golden brown and well-risen.

Ingredients

  • Rapeseed or sunflower oil, for greasing
  • 225g (8oz) self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 225g (8oz) coarse wholemeal flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 50g (2oz) wheat bran
  • 25g (1oz) butter, diced and at room temperature
  • 1 tsp light muscovado sugar
  • 300ml (½ pint) buttermilk, plus a little extra if necessary

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F/gas mark 7). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and grease the paper with a little oil.
  2. Sift the flours, baking soda and salt into a bowl. Tip in the bran left in the sieve and stir it in with the wheat bran. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it is evenly dispersed. Stir in the sugar.
  3. Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk and golden syrup. Using a large spoon, mix gently and quickly until you have achieved a smooth, not-too-sticky dough. Add a little more buttermilk if necessary, until the dough binds together without being sloppy.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 2.5cm (1in) thickness and cut into rounds with a 6cm (2½in) plain cutter. Arrange on the lined baking sheets and bake for 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and well-risen.
  5. Serve with butter or lightly whipped cream and strawberry jam.

  • Start yours and your baby’s day off right with these delicious and super nutritious breakfast muffins. Made using wholesome ingredients like carrots, apples, sunflower seeds, Greek yogurt and wholemeal flour, these muffins are the perfect breakfast finger food for your little one to enjoy in the morning.
  •  To serve to babies – Ensure you are always sitting with your baby when they are eating. Serve a mini muffin with a side of fruit. I like to use sliced pear, mango or strawberries.
  •  For older children serve 2 mini muffins or 1 large muffin in their lunchbox.
  • These muffins are perfect for school as they contain no sugar whatsoever!
  • The only sweetness comes from the delicious apple. You can make them even sweeter by adding a mashed banana to the mixture. @babyledfeeding

Ingredients 

  • ½ cup uncooked brown sushi rice
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 2 cups roasted butternut squash, chopped
  • 1 cup chopped zucchini
  • ½ cup frozen peas
  • 5 chopped crimini mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon chopped sage
  • 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
  • ½ cup shredded Asiago cheese
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions   

  1. Follow package directions to partially cook the rice for about 40 minutes. Drain excess water and set aside.
  2. Preheat a medium sauté pan to medium-high heat and add olive oil.
  3. Add the onions and sauté until soft.
  4. Add the rice to the pan and sauté with the onions for about 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
  5. Reserve 1/2 cup of stock. Then pour 1/2 cup of stock into sauté pan and let it absorb into the rice.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup of wine and let it absorb into the rice.
  7. Continue adding stock and wine in 1/2-cup increments, cooking each time until the liquid is absorbed before adding more, about 30 to 45 minutes total.
  8. Add the squash, zucchini, peas, mushrooms, sage and thyme to the pan, and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  9. Add the last 1/2 cup of the stock. Once the stock is absorbed into the rice, add the cheese, cream, salt and pepper; stir well.

Dietitian’s tip:

Traditional risotto is made with uncooked white rice. Brown rice adds fiber and nutrients, but it takes a long time to make risotto this way. That’s why this recipe calls for partially cooking the rice.
