Strawberry almond muffin

I was wondering...has my photo-taking improved? Never mind.
Still of me. I am finally up to date. Today I made strawberry almond muffins. I saw the recipe in this month's Woolworths magazine (click here for recipe) and coincidentally we have all the required ingredients. So I was like what are you waiting for. I made it and they taste awesome. If I make it next time I will maybe put in more strawberries, because we quite lost the flavour in the baking process. The recipe calls for roasted strawberries (here the recipe).

 

 

 

Just when I am talking about photography skills, here we have this landscape/portrait problem with my pictures. Seriously. I have not yet figure out how to fix this. To be continued.

Banana chocolate chip muffin with dessicated coconut

Banana muffins with some extra. This is the first thing I made with the new mixer. It is actually quite simple to use. Such a life facilitator. Back to the muffins, they taste like the fried banana cakes that my mum usually makes, but with chocolate. Yum. I would definitely advise to make those, especially in times when you haves some over-ripe bananas hanging around. This is a great recipe to make instead of throwing them away (wasting is a no no). These muffins are sweet and delicious. For those who want to try those, I followed this recipe.

Choc orange muffin

Alright, I do have a lot of posting to catch up with hehe. I will start off by the choc orange muffin I made last week. I am sure that you know how fond I am with the choc orange flavour. Those two combination goes so well together. Recently I seem to get a lot of 'on the spur' moments in terms of recipes I want to try. So the idea comes to my mind and I simply google the words and bang I have my recipe. I was especially looking for a recipe that have real orange juice as ingredient, not only the zest. So I find this one. Mine was slightly bake off a lil more. It was so yummy to eat the muffin once it came out of the oven (okay slightly cooled down). It was so delicious. I ate two in a row haha.

Ready to go in the oven

Out of the oven

Cooling down on the wire rack

Trying the first one yumm

...and the second one :)

 I would say to eat them on the day itself because it becomes less moist and soft after.

Oat meal, cranberry & pecan Muffin

Alright so *drum rolls* first time I made muffin by myself and the result damn okay. Weirdly enough, it tastes like I expect it to taste. It's nice to eat it just after it cools down a  lil from the oven- the top's still crunchy.
It has that nice crunchiness both inside and outside + the reason I like this recipe so much is that it contains so much goodness- oats, cranberry, pecan nuts and sultanas _ it's super delicious and filling.

I'll post pics later...now I'm savouring my muffins. Good breakfast idea by the way ;)

Here you go :

I just swap the dates for sultana from this recipe.
