Buoyed by the success of my Ginger and Almond Muffins, I decided to try a similar tack with chocolate muffins. I was never completely happy with my original Chocolate Muffins but using ground almonds instead of white rice flour has given them a new lease of life! If you’re thinking that the muffins look slightly misshapen, it is because I’ve …
Ginger and Almond Muffins
Over the Christmas/New Year period, I was staying at mum and dad’s, and decided to make my Ginger Muffins for which I use a combination of white rice flour and brown rice flour. It turned out mum didn’t have any white rice flour so I substituted it with ground almonds and tweaked the other ingredients. The result was pretty good …
Breakfast Muffins
After being away for a few days, the day after arriving home the only thing I had on hand for breakfast was an over-ripe banana! Thus these banana muffins were created. I didn’t want a sweet muffin, rather something that could be deemed slightly healthier! Most of the sweetness in these muffins comes from the banana and they have the …
Savoury Cheese Muffins
At the end of last year, I was inspired to create a recipe for Cheese Muffins after having some absolutely delicious ones that were made by a colleague. His had a beautifully strong cheese flavour, more so than these ones I think! I use Parmesan Cheese in these muffins – if you have a suggestion of a stronger-tasting cheese that …
Chocolate Muffins
With these muffins, I’m trying to stretch out for as long as I can the Easter theme of chocolate! As I continue to trial the use of alternative flours in my recipes, I am learning that one size doesn’t fit all. I discovered some time back that a combination of part brown rice flour and part white rice flour seemed …
Chocolate Chip Muffins
These muffins are a gluten-free adaptation of a recipe given to my sister many years ago by one of her friends. I used to love going with my sister to the friend’s place as the muffins were re-heated in the microwave oven immediately prior to serving and the chocolate chips would melt further through! At the time, we didn’t have a …
Apple Cinnamon Muffins
These apple cinnamon muffins always go down well when I take them to a “bring a plate” function. They are very soft and moist. I use tinned apple because it’s much more convenient! I use the Delish brand of tinned apple called “Pie Filling”. The 550g tin has just over 2 cups in it so I freeze the remainder for the …
Ginger Muffins
My father loves to spread butter over any muffin, regardless of flavour! In general, I’m not so keen but I do make an exception for Ginger Muffins. Butter seems to help bring out the flavour! These muffins are my gluten-free adaptation of traditional ginger muffins. As with all muffins, they are nicest eaten fresh. The next day, they are nice if …
Lemon and Poppy Seed Muffins
Like most muffin recipes, these lemon and poppy seed muffins are best eaten reasonably fresh from the oven. In the following days, they can be freshened by re-heating in a microwave oven for 12 seconds or a conventional oven for about 12-15 minutes. For the one cup of milk, I use either Rice Milk or Oat Milk; one cup of …
