Almond muffins
So many people have asked me for this, when I've posted about it, I've put it here.
It isn't originally my recipe, I can't remember where or who I got it from, so if it's yours please post and we'll attribute it properly!
They can be savoury as well as sweet, take 5 mins to make and 10 to bake!
Ingredients (for all types)
200g ground almonds
50g butter
4 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
and then, if you're making sweet ones,
4 - 6 little packets of Splenda (2-3 flat teaspoons)
flavouring - I currently use 3 teaspoons of cocoa powder, have used the same of ground ginger or a teaspoon of cinnamon.
or if you're making savoury ones,
no Splenda, but flavouring - grated cheese, mixed herbs.
These savoury ones are great with pate.
To make
Mix everything together (add a bit of cream if the mixture is too stiff to drop off the spoon when you knock the spoon on the side of the bowl - not usually needed)
Grease 'bun tins' - i do this with olive oil for speed, can use lard too.
(don't know what you call them over there, but you know the things, 12 little 'holes' in a tray)
Spoon a very heaped teaspoon into each hole. Makes between 16 - 20.
Bake at 180C (about gas mark 6, don't know in F) for 10 - 15 mins until risen a bit and a knife comes out dry if pushed in.
Per muffin - based on 20 per recipe
