Lemon Poppyseed Muffins
These muffins were inspired by a post from Susan Eats London. How incredible does that cake sound? However, since I planned to make these for new year’s day, I was still trying to use up all the leftover stuff in my fridge. That meant I wasn’t buying the stuff I didn’t have for her recipe, […]
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
I was inspired to make these last weekend, in addition to the corn muffins, because the Giants also had a breakfast game. I didn’t know our full regular crowd wouldn’t be there, so I made a dozen (well, a baker’s dozen), but it worked out just fine with everyone getting to have more than one. […]
Corn Muffins
One of my favorite things about living in LA during football season, as I’ve probably posted about before, is that we have so many breakfast games. I really do enjoy watching football while eating breakfast, though I haven’t quite pinpointed why. Maybe it just feels right rolling out of bed and lazing around for 3.5 […]
Oatmeal Bran Muffins
I had a request, one morning, for Oatmeal Bran Muffins. You know me, I said “Okay! Let’s see what I can do.” I knew that Joy the Baker would have a something I could use. I had to adapt her recipe, though I will certainly make it someday as is, because the muffins were requested […]
Chocolate Chip Muffins
These chocolate chip muffins, adapted from the Double Chocolate Muffins recipe in The Joy of Cooking (pg. 636), are an integral part of the breakfast of champions. I made them recently when I was helping some friends out with crafts services (fooooood) on a commercial shoot. (I also made Oatmeal Bran Muffins on request.) I […]
Pumpkin Muffins
These muffins were super easy to whip together one morning for breakfast during the Giants game. I brought all the ingredients, pre mixed, over to my friend’s place, and within half an hour we had some yummy, fresh-baked muffins. I saw this recipe on Muffintop and thought it sounded fabulous. I tweaked it slightly, as I […]
Donut Muffins
These sounded a little too good to not try. Muffins that taste like donuts, and they’re baked- not fried. Umm, yes please? I found a bunch of recipes, but this one from Hillbilly Housewife made the most sense to me. It’s such a simple list of ingredients that it just sounds right. She also has […]
If I could marry a baked good…
Believe it or not, there’s no exaggeration when I say I think these were the best muffins ever conceived. Maybe they’re even the best things I have ever baked. I got the recipe from my baking class, and after I ate about 3 of them that day alone, I decided I had to make them […]
Top of the mornin’, blueberry
Blueberry muffins. Is there anything better? Part dessert, part breakfast food, and chock full of fresh berries (if you’re doing it right!). I’ve made these for my coworkers before, during blueberry season. How could I not? I can’t eat all those berries by myself, though I try. Sometimes I switch it up with chocolate chips, […]
