Looking around for a simple and nice muffin, I arrived to read a recipe book for children. This book looks more like a calendar and I received it from my mother to cook for my daughter. Although it has many great recipes inside I do not know why, but it is the first time to try something from it. And the result was far from being disappointing. This muffin recipe is actually amazing: it is simple to make, it has a crumbly texture due to the ground almond and is very flavored. My daughter in fact loved it even more than me and this for me is a very good indicator that the recipe worth to be made again.
Ingredients:
- 150g flour
- 100g ground almonds
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar
- 2 eggs
- 100g sugar
- 150g butter
- 60g milk chocolate (grated)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven at 180ºC.
- Beat the eggs with sugar.
- Add flour, almond, salt, vanilla sugar and mix.
- Add slowly the butter and mix.
- Add the chocolate and mix.
- Pour the composition into muffin molds by filling them 2/3. Decorate them with sliced almonds if you like.
- Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes.
- Let them cool on a rack.

My son loves almonds. I will try but i have a questin. The butter should be only soft or dissolved?
Joanna, I put the butter after heating it 20 seconds in the microwave. The texture was just soft and it didn't arrive to be liquid.
Thank you.
