Thought process: I have flour. Hm. And eggs. There should still be a stick of butter in the fridge. By golly, I can make chocolate chip lemon muffins!
 |
Muffin components. Flour, milk, sugar, an egg, butter. Also a pinch of salt
and some baking powder. Flavoring ingredients I had available: lemon,
lime, chocolate chips. What a combo! |
 |
Mixing all the liquid ingredients (butter gets melted too). The lemon juice
made the milky mixture curdle, but didn't ultimately affect the batter. |
 |
Folding in the dry ingredients (sugar, flour). I sifted the flour beforehand
so that everything will stay fluffy and light. |
 |
Mix mix (but don't overmix!), and after adding chocolate chips,
the batter is done! So easy! |
 |
Filling up my cute silicone muffin cups. Nonstick! Then into the oven
for maybe 20 minutes. |
 |
| And they're done! Golden and fluffy. |
 |
The lemon flavor didn't come through well (and I added both juice and
zest!), so I made a glaze using lime juice (I was out of lemons) and
powdered sugar. |
 |
| Really tangy glaze (and yes, I own a teeny tiny whisk). |
 |
| Finished muffins. |
 |
Despite it looking filled with chocolate chips, wasn't too heavy.
The lime glaze really helped perk it up! |
