My Almond Muffins And Someone Wins The Cookbook!
Perhaps some of you are here to see what I have done with this month’s Daring Baker challenge? Unfortunately, I do not have a Daring Baker post for you this month.
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 50 gm butter , softened at room temperature
- 1/2 tsp almond sweet extract
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup almonds chopped
Beat together the milk, egg, butter and almond extract in a bowl. Mix together all the dry ingredients in another bowl and add to the wet ingredient mixture. Stir only just till theyu2019re mixed.
Remember over-mixing the batter will produce heavy and dense muffins.
Spoon the batter into greased muffin tins and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes till done and golden brown on the top. Remove from tins and cool on a rack.
Serve with tea/ coffee or as a simple dessert. This recipe makes 8 to 10 muffins depending on the size of your muffin tins.
And it is time to announce the winner of my cookbook giveaway!
I had previously mentioned that Random House India, the publishers of the Indian edition of Monica Bhide's’s Modern Spice had sent me a copy of the book to giveaway to one lucky reader of my blog.
I’m very happy to announce that luck favoured Simran of Bombay Foodie and she can look forward to seeing her copy of Modern Spice some time next week.
Congratulations Simran!
