Hello, lovelies!
How are you doing? Hope you are all having a lovely week 🙂 I thought I would upload a special post today, showing you the muffins I baked for my birthday and sharing the recipe with you, in case you wanted to recreate them. I can assure you, they taste heavenly and are quite easy to make 🙂
First of all, let me show you my inspiration for these “Birthday Muffins”
My mum sent me this picture of these muffins she baked and I thought they looked so yummy that I wanted to recreate them myself, with some other toppings. Seriously, though, how gorgeous do these look?
On to the recipe!
These are all the ingredients you will need:
♥ 3 tea cups of self-raising flower
♥ 4 tablespoons of sugar
♥ 50 grams of unsalted butter
♥ 1 and 1/2 cups of milk
♥ 3 whole eggs
You add all your ingredients to a mixing bowl and stir it well (a kitchenaid would be incredibly helpful at this point).
Then you add whatever you want to your muffins. I chose berries, caramel/fudge cubes and a mix of three chocolates (dark, white and milk). Some other options would be:
♥ Chocolate Chips
♥ Nuts
♥ Fruit (any fruit you like, either in slices or little pieces)
♥ Jam
♥ Honey
(I did not actually bake them in the paper cups, they were just for decoration at this point.)
Fill about 3/4 of your muffin pans with the dough, add your toppings and, before going in the oven, your muffins should look something like this 🙂
.
And after…
After only about 20 minutes at 190 ºC, this is what you get! I know, I know, they do not look as pretty as mum’s but they still look okay…right? 🙂
(They rose quite alright but the paper cups were a couple of sizes too big for them 😛 )
And there you have it, guys! My birthday muffins… What do you think? Let me know if you recreate them 🙂
Love,
Alice ❤
So lovely Alice and I hope you had the best birthday ever.

Então força, vai recriar estes que são uma delícia! 😉
Eu sou tão gulosa que tenho de me forçar a não fazer doces senão viro bola xD
Mas estes são óptimos porque levam pouco açúcar, por isso fazem menos mal :p
