Granny-Smith apples are fucking filling!
Jan. 10th, 2008 03:44 pmI made some muffins today and it's ridiculous the amount of apple that the Australian Institute of Sport want you to put in a muffin mix. TWO apples for a six-muffin mix? Are they MAD? I altered the recipe, mainly because I was using slightly different ingredients. They are as follows:
- 2 cups of self-raising gluten-free flour
- 1/2 cup of psyllium husk
- 1 apple, peeled, cored and diced
- 2 teaspoons of cinnamon
- 3/4 cup of brown sugar (Why does it taste so gooood?!)
- 1/4 teaspoon of all spice
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves
- 2 tablespoons of margarine
- 1 egg
- 1 1/4 cups of milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
Making muffins is pretty easy. Preheat oven to 180C. Mix wet ingredients and apple pieces, mix dry ingredients and then mix both together until they're *just* combined. Don't mix too much or they'll be chewy. Spoon into oiled/margarined muffin cup or tray. Cook for twenty minutes. Et voila!
Piece of piss, really. Rachel Ray says she can't bake? What is her fucking damage - it's THAT EASY, people. I had to eat the second apple I cored because, well, it was cored and if I didn't eat it'd go off. I don't like eating Granny-Smiths without cooking them, though, they're too hard and dense. Nice and juicy, but not a good fresh apple. These ones weren't anyway, but they *were* the last of the apples. I prefer a nice pink lady. Crisp but sweet. It also called for sultanas but, leaving aside for the moment that I loathe dried fruits (except banana chips which is the ONLY way I'll eat bananas and dried apricots, they're okay), I can't have insoluble fibre and sultanas are CHOCKAS with the stuff.
Anyway, after that one apple I'm absolutely stuffed. I'd be good at being anorexic if I didn't love eating so much. Plus I like my big tits far too much. God I love having a good self image! *basks in the self love*
