Each week I receive an email newsletter from the Good Food website with suggestions for seasonal recipes. A week or so ago the focus was on strawberries, A recipe for strawberry and white chocolate muffins jumped out from the screen and so I decided to check the recipe.
In the end I decided to steal the idea and make up my own recipe loosely based on the one I use for rhubarb crumble muffins.
A batch was made yesterday. Sitting in the summer house we enjoyed one or two (or possibly three - four in Martyn's case) with the elderflower cordial that Martyn made using flowers from the plot.
Some weren't very big so maybe I should have just made nine instead if twelve. Guess who had the small ones.
The recipe that I came up with is available on my website here

They look yummy. I love The Good Food website, it has lots of great tried and tested recipes on it.
ReplyDeleteIt does, Jo and the reviews make good suggestions on how to adapt the recipes too.
DeleteThey look great. I think I'll bookmark this recipe to make them next weekend. Only we don't have strawberries this year...well cherries will be fine too :D :D
ReplyDeleteAny fruit would work well Leanan. Cherries will be good or blueberries.
DeleteOh my I'm salivating Sue lol. I think I may have to have a go at these though I'm going to have to buy the fruit as nothing is ready here.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, can't wait to try them :)
You could always wait a little while, Linda.
DeleteThey look gorgeous, but I have so much elder in the garden it's hard to keep on top of it....in the 18th century, I have read that elder flowers were fried in batter, it is a really good food source but it grows like weeds. Fab post.xxxx
