I have a new compulsion in the form of baking round, yeast - leavened bread AKA the muffin. It has been what you might call an evolutionary process.
It all started with a quest to find a healthy, wholesome muffin recipe for breakfasts on the move. Something wholemealey and filling and stuffed with blueberries, cranberries and anything else ending in 'erries. I hit upon a recipe with no butter or sugar but consisted of honey and natural yoghurt for thickening and sweetening. Tried it in cupcake cases and a bun tin.
Tasted OK if not a little dry but ultimately disastrous in form.
Bought some proper muffin cases and faired better.
Bought a heavy gauge muffin tin. Bingo bango.
Changed the recipe to chocolate chips with butter, sugar, baking powder and white flour. Vastly more unhealthy but I am now the world's best girlfriend and a hit with people I've never met at my better half's place of work.
I'm now an addict.
