That encouraged me a lot! I moved on to banana muffin but it was a failure. I got all the recipes from google searches on the internet and it had been kinda \u2018hit or miss\u2019 experience. Dismayed by 2 failed attempts at making banana muffins, I lamented at my colleague-baker expert one day. She went home to try out her banana recipe and brought me some the following day. It tasted just right &#8211; moist and full of flavour! I asked for her recipe and she was ever so kind to share it with me and also taught me the secret to making good muffins. I was thrilled and went home to try out it immediately. It worked! <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https:\/\/chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Her recipe can be modified to make other flavoured muffins too. I tried apple-almond-maple syrup muffins yesterday and it turned out well too. The only pity now is that Yang doesn\u2019t take a fancy to muffins and hasn\u2019t really eaten any of my successful products. I\u2019d normally bring my muffins to school and offer them to my colleagues. Some of them enjoyed the amateurish muffins. <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https:\/\/chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My next baking attempt will be butter and sugee cakes <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https:\/\/chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve been into baking muffins and butter cake over the past month I didn\u2019t know that baking muffins can be so easy until my colleague who\u2019s expert at baking share her recipe with me.
