Pumpkin Granola Cups

Few months ago I had a conversation how it is ti work, post on my blog and to be a mom. I honestly answered, that it’s not that difficult, that I’m definitely more organised now, because I need to fit into Mia’s naps, but I totally manage. Few days ago I’ve been asked the same question and my answer was “mate, it’s crazy! This girl is a small destroyer, interesting in things that can harm her or cause a lot of trouble”. Cute safe toys – no no no, but drawers full of keys and coins – yes yes yes.I curse the day when I’ve decided that owning unique pieces of furniture that look cool is cool. No it’s not, as it’s not always possible to make it childproof. But you know what is still super fun? When Mia screams because she want’s to taste something I use for cooking, like cinnamon or nut or cappers. There’s no “girl, you won’t like it, not yet”. She has to and then she tries and then she’s spiting and making this cute face of disgust. So going back to the question – how is it to have a kid and work from home? It is possible, but it is so much easier when you have a family member in the same country, which I don’t 🙂

I made this pumpkin granola cups because it’s easy, fast na delicious. You can make it totally vegan by serving them with soy yogurt. I also used chocolate balls, as I needed it. You can make yours with fruits and fresh mint, so kind of guilt free.

Oh, and there’s an exciting piece of news I got today. I had a pleasure to become a BOHO girl, yet again. I love fashion, but lets be honest, I’ve never thought that I’ll have a chance to become a model. And I did! For one day I was a BOHO girl wandering around my favourite spots in Berlin. There’s sweet Mia as well, so check it out if you have a moment 🙂

You will need (for 6):

• ¾ cup rolled oats
• ½ cup coconut flakes
• pinch of salt
• 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
• ¼ cup sunflower seeds
• 5 tbsp pumpkin puree
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp agave nectar

For serving:

• soy yogurt
• fruits
• fresh mint

Heat an oven to 175*C. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl. Grease muffin form and divide mix between 6 forms. using a spoon or your finger form a cup with it (push it in the middle).Bake for about 15-20 minutes.

When cups are baked, let it cool and then remove from the muffin form. Serve with soy milk and fruits. Or pieces of chocolate. Everything works here.

Enjoy, Marta
