If you are a regular reader on my blog, you would know that I love making muffins. If you have not tried the top 3 muffin recipes on my blog yet, please do. It’ll list them here for your easy reference.
Muffins is my choice of bake product simply because they are quick, easy, and has never failed to satisfy the sweet tooth or hungry bellies looking for a snack. Muffins are also a very good make ahead breakfast option. Bake the day before to sleep in a little more in the morning. The family will go on auto-pilot to grab themselves a muffin for breakie if it’s on the kitchen counter.
I know it is uncommon to use grapes in muffins. However, that does not mean that it should not be in there. My eldest wanted me to buy red seedless grapes for her to snack on, and the auntie in me bought so much because they were on promotion. 1 punnet for $8.99 and 2 for $10.99? Quite a no-brainer. Which also led me to this grape muffin experiment.
I really did enjoy biting into the grapes for that burst of sweetness. The grapes holds its shape pretty well even after baking and did not turn into a mushy mess, which was awesome because it added nice texture to the muffins.
I’m also trying to mess around with producing recipe videos after getting quite a few requests. So there is my debut. There are still a lot I need to learn about shooting these recipe videos and editing them. Baby steps I suppose. Let me know what you think, I’d love to hear from you.
