When it comes to MUFFIN, I can be really carping. It pisses me off to admire such a beautiful, alluring, tormenting piece of nice-looking muffins that would turn out to be hardy (baling ke dinding), or too sweet, or too dry you can actually choked, or the taste like you've been swallowing up the whole bottle of bicarbonate soda! Well.. believe me, I can go on and on, grumbling about this, all the way from the store till I got home.
Until.... I discovered a very nice recipe, not too sweet, moist, and the smell.. oohhh.. you gotta try this one. But the most important.. it's healthy.. which means.. I can have 3 or 4 pieces of em.. errkk.. ok..I admit, I ate a lot.
I googled a few recipes of 'best muffin' in the net and tried out one (can't remember from which site, it came out in US forum). It took me 3 times to try and error, adding and reducing the ingredients until I was satisfied with the result. I tried my best to make it as healthy as possible so that I can put the guilt aside..hehe. Originally, it tasted 'bica' and quite dry so I add up some milk and reduce the rising agent. I add some wholemeal flour and raisins (source of fiber) and use pandan paste for a twist. I also subsitute the unsalted butter with sunflower oil. There you go.. Check out the recipe below.
