Do you know the muffin man?

Very Very Easy Muffins - Emily - 20 July 2011

I apparently can't stop cooking at the moment so after another walk in the rain I decided to give Emily's Very VeryEasy Muffins a go.

I was seriously multitasking while making these muffins. All at once I was making a quiche for dinner (no pastry, easy, delicious), making the batch of banana and coconut muffins, putting the apples in to bake for the apple and cinnamon muffins and icing my face after waxing (I've got seriously sensitive skin). It was quite the production!

Needless to say, the kitchen had never seen such a mess! The muffins were as easy as Em had said. The bananas (although practically rotten) cost me $6 which was a total rip off but it really was as easy as combining all the ingredients and putting the mixture in a muffin tin (which I had to buy especially). I made 9 out of this batch and they cooked perfectly after 20 minutes.

I cut the apples up into the right size, tipped a load of brown sugar mixed in water over them and added some cinnamon to the top to bake them. They cooked in about 10 minutes and tasted really yum. I forgot to mix the butter in until the very last minute so the mixture was really runny and buttery. I added a bit more flour until it was the right texture and tipped it into the tin. They also made 9, cooked in 20 minutes and were amazing.

I of course took them to work for everyone to try and they seemed to disappear pretty quickly which is always a good sign! Very easy and something I'm sure I'll make again! The apple ones in particular were a hit!

Tips: When creating a mess in the kitchen, don't leave the container of flour in the sink with its lid off as when you turn the tap on, it could be a disaster!
Music: Sian had Friends on so I watched that - the Barbados episodes – amazing!
