rise and shine muffins
rating:I have recently returned to university in a town where Starbucks has yet to reach (which is by no means a bad thing), however, after some recent work experience which required me to waste time in Starbucks every morning before I could enter the building (blame trains that don't run at sensible times and a lack of seating in anywhere else), I developed a dependency for their Rise and Shine Muffins. Again not a good thing, given the amount of additives that end up in those things... However, I am making the most of this opportunity to try to recreate these muffins (more work procrastination is always useful!), so if anyone has any suggestions on how to combine pine nuts, wholemeal ingredients of some kind, sultanas and other healthy things into a muffin, let me know!
I don't know about the pine nuts specifically but for maple and pecan, or apple I normally just drop the amount of flour a little depending on how much else I've added.
