Pear, Dried Fig and Dark Chocolate Muffins

Uuuuupps - today I have yet another Muffin recipe for you. But hey, one can't have enough muffin recipes right? Especially when we talk about some with pears, dried figs and dark chocolate plus they use whole wheat flour - no more questions!

Chocolate and Coconut Cream Muffins

I've graduated school - whohoooo!! Oh, my, it's almost unbelievable how anxiously, happy, sad andexcited I've actually waited for this sentence to be written down ;-).

12 years of achievement or failure, of late night studies and early pre-exam mornings, of adventurous class trips or boring math classes are over. And I almost never thought to say (or write) this sentence myself, but this time went fast! Hard to believe, that I'm no longer the excited little first grader who can't wait to learn reading and writing or the lazy 8th grader feeling like latin ain't my business.

Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Muffins

I'm back in my beloved home after an awesome one week holiday in sunny egypt (have got a detailed post on that up soon)and the only thing I've really done since returning is: SLEEP!
Not that I haven't got enough during long hours spent on the lounger at the pool, but the rainy weather and the small jetlag (to be true it's only an hour, yes, you may laugh about it but I'll respect it either way because that's the longest jetlag I've ever got :D) have done the rest and I spent yesterday doing nearly nothing.

As sad as I am about not having a sunny, 24 °C day here, I'm happy to finally have my home kitchen around: the stovetop and oven just waiting to be all heated up again and help creating wonderful foods.



To get back in the swing of whirling around between fruit, veggies, flour, and spices I've opted for some simple Chocolate Chip Muffins, healthified with whole wheat flour, apples and yoghurt, evolving into bakery style high domed tops: perfect for the coming relaxed holiday mornings, with a good cuppa coffee and a magazine at the side. I just love homemade muffins as an indulgent yet easily lightened up indulgent breakfast treat. We're not talking cupcakes but real MUFFINS here.
