Muffins I have tried and loved!!

WOW!! I haven't blogged in sooooo long!!! I will hopefully have a catch up post coming soon.

Anyway I have a slight addiction to muffins, like I need to take one with me to school for my lunch EVERY day!! I usually make 3-4 batches of different muffins on the odd weekend and freeze them and take one out of the freezer in the morning, put it in my lunch box and by lunch (12:30) it's defrosted and ready to eat.

The first muffin recipe is from Annie's Eats and are Strawberry Banana Muffins. The store I went to did not have fresh or frozen strawberries so instead I used frozen raspberries which we always have in the fridge. They tasted really good and this recipe actually made me 20 muffins.

The next muffin recipe is from Our Best Bites and are Banana-pecan muffins. Instead of using whole wheat flour and plain flour, I used all plain flour. These muffins taste so good however they are a little sweet so next time I make them I will only add 1/2 cup of sugar.

I also LOVE Annie's Eats Raspberry Muffins. The tart raspberries and sweet muffin is such a lovely combination. To make these muffin I used frozen raspberries and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar instead of corse sugar.

I've made quite a few of Annie's Eats muffin recipe's and another I really like are her Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Muffins. I think these muffins are a lovely combination of flavours but a few of my friends thought they were weird so tried them and didn't like them but I love them. Instead of using creamy peanut butter in this recipe I used crunchy peanut butter and thought it gave the muffins a lovely crunch:)

So there are 4 great muffin recipes you should make when you are craving muffins next!!
