Cinnamon Raisin Muffin!

Baking is really 'something'! You need to keep in mind about the measurement,temperature or if you've put in too much baking soda or powder or maybe too lumpy cookie dough,etc and etc.That's a lot! I know.

I'm no expert baker,sometimes I've done countless mistakes and its obvious when it comes to baking.But I believe in simplicity.The more the complex a recipe is,the more you tend to ruin it.So,it better be simple than to land up in your garbage bin,right?

"All happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast." ~John Gunther.And when its muffin,then its really a good one.
This is an easy recipe,perfect for the novice bakers.Try it and I know you'll like love it.

Lets go over the Ingredients:

1 cup (that's about  150 gm) all purpose flour.
1/3 cup (that's about 40 gm) whole wheat flour.
1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
1 tablespoon grounded cinnamon.
1/2 cup raisins.
2 teaspoon of baking powder.
1 medium-sized egg.
3 tablespoon of melted butter.
1 teaspoon honey.
1/2 cup milk.
A pinch of salt.

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 F/180 C.

In a large bowl mix in all the dry ingredients (flour,sugar,cinnamon,raisins,baking powder,salt).Combine well and set aside.

In another bowl,mix in the wet ingredients (egg,butter,honey and milk) and whisk lightly,mixing well.

Now,fold the dry mixture into the wet,incorporating all the ingredients well.The batter will be think not runny.

Arrange muffin tray or silicon molds and pour in the batter,filling 3/4 level.

Tap a little so that no air bubbles remain in and then sprinkle a little brown sugar on top of each.

Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Cool and Serve.
