Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins!
Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins!
Yes it is true! I did indeed bake MORE muffins! Today it was Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins! The main factor spurring on this baking expedition today, was my insatiable craving for peanut butter. That deliciously golden spread, which many of us just cannot get enough of! Sure it is high in fat, but at least it is not fried. Well in any case, that is the story I am sticking to. An interesting fact is that the humble peanut is not in fact a nut at all, but a member of the legume family (famously known for its many beans).
Back to the muffins! I used smooth peanut butter in my recipe as to my horror, when I looked in the pantry; there was hardly any crunchy peanut butter left. However, I would recommend using a crunchy peanut butter as it gives the muffins a more peanut flavour and texture! However if you discover you only have smooth peanut butter left, don’t worry, because the muffins still tastes delicious!
