♬'At Last' By Etta James
On a baking frenzy again, I think it's time I started to look into opening up a quirky bakery!
Ah yes the muffin, an easy mixture and so diverse in flavour, because any sort of ingredient can be added, to create a mammoth snack next to a cup of tea.
This afternoon I wanted to put the tea essence in the muffin! So I added a teaspoon of my mums home made chai masala, and they taste so good. One more thing - I forgot to add eggs, but to my surprise these turned out fine! The 200g of flour and milk helped to bind the mixture instead.
Give it a go...
