It March, how time flies. I'm in Melbourne already for a month. WOW.


Muffins... 
Hmm, what are they? 
Muffins are American, is a cake style, high in sugar and is chemically aerated. Muffins are baked in high temperature and the top after baking should have a cracked or broken surface. The temperature is about 210 degree with full bottom heat to allow the heat to penetrate through the tray. Muffins should be removed from the oven without over baking to prevent drying and shrinkage. They are best removed from trays as soon as possible for these reasons. 


My partner and I decided to do Chocolate Banana Muffins. YUMM. I used to baked at home and is the best combination. The banana can be smashed and put in when the batter is ready. It is easy to make them. Combine all the dry ingredients and sift them. As this is chocolate banana muffin, I have deduct some amount of flour to add in cocoa powder. Mix the wet ingredients in another bowl. Later, just pour the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix till well combined. Don't over mix them as they will be tough after baking. Place them in a muffin pan and 3/4 filled with the mix. After that, off to the oven. Bake at 210 degree for 15 minutes.
