Anyway, just to start of, I started to bake yesterday night as I wanted to present some gifts to two students who helped out managing the students' work in my tutorial class. I really couldn't think of anything else that I can offer them at the first place, I had no extra books to lend, nor do I feel like shouting them dinner, hence I thought of doing something that I was at better hands with...
So, what did I bake? Muffins! One of the easiest things to bake I reckon, just behind scones. Haha, anyway, check this recipe out, I took it off some website and added things here and there when I saw the ingredients lying there in the storage doing nothing.
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin
1 medium Egg
1 1/2 cup Flour
3/4 cup Milk
3/4 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
3/4 cup pureed Banana
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
2 tbsp Butter
1 tbsp Golden Syrup
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Cinnamon Powder
( I went berserk and added a few more!)
1/2 tsp Nutmeg Powder
Method
Well, as I have mentioned, it is not a hard thing to make muffins, to start off, mix all the dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Then mix the pureed banana, milk and golden syrup in another bowl. Add the egg, followed by vegetable oil into the dry mixture, make sure to continuously stir and mix them, stir in the moist ingredients after that, continue to stir until it becomes a thick paste.
Grease a muffin tray, use paper muffin cups if you like, spoon the thick slurry into the cups until at least half the volume , bake at preheated oven for about 20 minutes at 205 degrees Celsius. Leave to stand for a bout 5 minutes before serving.
Small bite size muffins like this are suitable as gifts to others, note how unprofessional I have wrapped them. lol The third pack behind is for Stan, a token of appreciation to him for introducing the job as well. =)
