i'm crazy about red.

apple cinnamon muffins...
i just thought i'd do what my mr m...son does,
he piles the ingredients into a bowl
and out comes a lovely cake!
so here goes...this is what i did when i wanted
low gi muffins...
2 cups of wholemeal self raising flour...into a medium bowl,
melt 125 grams butter in the microwave in a small bowl.
cut up 2 medium granny smith apples into small cubes and add to the flour.
put one tablespoon of cinnamon into the flour and apple mixture,
and stir lightly.
add the melted butter to the mixture..mix a little.
add about half a cup of honey (more or less depending on your taste)
add about half a cup of honey (more or less depending on your taste)
add 2 eggs and mix a little more..it will still be a bit stiff.
add 1 cup of milk to the mixture and mix until fully blended.
put one and a half tablespoons into large muffin cases on a muffin tray
and bake at 180 degrees celsius
for 18 minutes...check at about 15 minutes or when they smell lovely and ready!
cool slightly and eat with a lovely cup of tea or coffee
using your favourite plates and cups!
be careful because an extra dose of gratitude may sneak up on you unexpectedly!
i'm linking up today with 'maxabella loves'...
checking out what other people are grateful for today.
