Many months ago, in an attempt to find a use for a fruit that was readily available from the restaurant (i.e. "free"), I stumbled upon a recipe for raspberry almond muffins. I have made them many times since, and it is rare that the muffins last more than a day or two. The little red haired boy has been known to weasel his way up to the cooling rack and steal muffins when I'm not looking.
I went out and bought a williams-sonoma cookbook on muffins in order to diversify my muffin repetoire and in hopes, quite frankly, of finding another "smash hit" of a muffin. So far I have made the following:
1. apple sauce muffins
2. jam-filled muffins
3. lemon poppyseed muffins
4. vanilla pear muffins
all of them have been good. the grandparents gave good marks to the vanilla pear (my latest creations), and yet none of them have been as popular as the raspberry almond muffins. What is the allure of the muffins? Is it the raspberries? Is it the almond paste??
