I am now in the happy position to be able to report that these muffins are very good indeed. They are rather more savoury than muffins you buy in the shops, but that is no bad thing as far as I’m concerned, especially when I’m after breakfast foods. The first one I had, when they were only just cooled wasn’t as nice as the one I ate just now, and I had a suspicion that this would be the case. Some baking just needs a bit of time for the flavours to settle into themselves. Or something. Either way, I am very happy with these, and I will definitely be making them again. The whole process only took me an hour or so, and to take an hour out of my day every couple of weeks, when I get yummy muffins out of it, I can work with that!
As to which recipe I should try next…I’m wondering about Lemon, Sunflower Seed and Blueberry muffins. I suspect they would go down well in at least one quarter…although finding blueberries that aren’t an ethical nightmare at this time of year might be a challenge. I have my eyes on Parmesan and Paprika Scones, and “Forbidden” Chocolate Brownies (quote marks mine!), but think I would need a good excuse for brownies, whereas who can ever object to scones on a dim and gloomy October afternoon? Let’s be honest, though, eventually I will make most of the recipes in this book!
