Notes about Recipes in this book

• Classic chocolate buttercream cupcakes

    I made these cupcakes with the peanut butter frosting from the Peanut Butter Cupcakes. The cupcakes were a bit on the dry side. I have other chocolate cupcake recipes that I'll be using instead of this one.

• Peanut butter cupcakes

    I made the frosting from this recipe for a chocolate cupcake recipe and swapped crunchy peanut butter for creamy. I loved the frosting! It is definitely something I'll be making again.

• Apple and cinnamon muffins

    A perfect simple, delicious muffin recipe. This was really easy to make and is exactly what I needed for a grab and go breakfast. I will say, the apples I used were probably more medium than small, so this recipe made twice as many muffins as suggested, which is never a complaint for me!

• Low-fat courgette and chocolate muffins

    Love these muffins! I froze most of the batch a day after baking so in the morning, I just pop one out while I get ready for the day. I microwave it for about 10-15 seconds before eating & it's an absolutely delicious morning treat!

• Avocado and lemon muffins

  • cjannace on May 11, 2016

    This recipe seemed so intriguing, but did not end up like I expected. I made the muffins according to the recipe, although the recipe made 2 dozen muffins instead of 1. When I first took a taste, I was so disappointed. Something was missing. Was it the lack of sugar? Not enough salt. I couldn't put a finger on it. I didn't want to toss them as a failed experiment, but they just didn't have enough flavor. Then a friend suggested a brilliant addition: lemon glaze! So I added my favorite lemon glaze & it is just what was needed! So while these are cooling on the rack, whip up a quick glaze with 1 cup confectioners sugar, 2 tbsp lemon juice & 1 tbsp milk. You won't regret it!
