What is your favourite ingredient for baking muffins?
Do you prefer fruits, vegetables or something else?
We would appreciate if you would post your favourite ingredient in our comment section.
| Makes 8 to 12 servings.
Today we had about 15° to 17°C (60° F) and an overcast sky. The ideal conditions to bake something for the teatime.
In our household we have the habit to have a teatime (with cocoa, tea or coffee and any cake / cookies) at about 4 a.m. when it is possible after we get home.
We normally stand up early in the morning. To have some caffeine / theobromine in the afternoon gives us some energy for the rest of the day.
Although the strawberry season started, we decided to use some frozen raspberries that were left over from garnishing ice cream.
Ingredients:
50g butter
1 egg
100 g flour
35 g sugar
2 teasp. vanilla sugar
1/2 teasp. baking powder
250 g raspberries, frozen |

The maypole tradition in North-Rhine-Westphalia, Germany:
A popular tradition in our part of Germany, the Rhineland, goes back to 13th century (affirm some sources). In the night between of 30th of April and 1th of May young men place a fresh cut down birch tree in front of the house of their beloved.
On the 1th of June, one month later, the men clean up the tree and their beloved rewards their effort with an invitation to a dinner or a crate of beer.
The maypole tradition is celebrated in different variations throughout Germany.
