Before I go...

Just before I head off, I'll leave you with one of my favourite things (for my work colleagues, this is mainly so that someone can replace my contributions to the office while I'm away...)


White chocolate, amaretto, almond and rhubarb muffins
310g plain flour
100g caster sugar
70g light muscovado sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
60g ground almonds
120g milk
2 eggs
50g amaretto
100g butter
200g rhubarb, chopped into 5mm dice
150g white chocolate

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees C (fan 160), line 12 muffin tin sections.
  • Sift the flour, sugar and baking powder into a large bowl and stir in the ground almonds
  • Combine the milk, eggs and amaretto in a medium sized bowl and beat well with a fork
  • Melt the butter, then add all the ingredients together and fold together until just combined
  • Fold in the rhubarb and white chocolate
  • Divide evenly into the muffin tin sections and bake for around 25 mins 
  • Cool on a wire rack and then enjoy!
The next post will be from Kerala, likely to also be food related after a few Keralan cooking lessons!
