Things I do when I'm on home leave now preparing myself for Peanut's arrival in 2 weeks' time....
I'm not good at baking. Most things I bake turn out below expectations lol. From brownies to muffins to focaccia bread and chicken pie.
I think the only thing I can bake is shepherds pie. But that is closer to cooking a normal dish than baking pastries and cakes.
So anyway, the thought hit me to clear some of the stuff I have in my kitchen and I ended up baking after lunch. Attempted a small batch of Choc chip and raisin muffins.
They turned out a little too hard at the top, I think I need to lower my temperature a little. There was not enough oil and not enough sugar too though these are arguable. Maybe the recipe I followed was a healthy option recipe haha.
But still a better attempt than the previous time I tried making muffins haha.
Pics for posterity. Gonna let the little girl try one muffin tonight. She's my worst food critic so I'm keeping my fingers crossed lol.
You can tell the tops are too brown and hard...when they should have been fluffier-looking!
