It is a chilly gray winter day here in Albuquerque. One of the reasons I moved here was the weather - Albuquerque is sunny. The sunniest place I've ever been, with an annual rainfall of about 8 inches. We don't know gray - and all of my family starts complaining and heading to our beds when the clouds come in. Today seemed perfect for a cup of tea, and a muffin (paleo of course.)
I got out my Everyday Paleo cookbook (by Sarah Fragoso) and started to make Apple Muffins, and that is where the trouble began. This is a great cookbook, my favorite cookbook even. I am sure her recipe is excellent - when followed. First off, can't find the muffin tin. Oh yeah, I think I gave it away a year ago. After all, I don't bake anymore. A cake pan will work. I added all the wet ingredients, then reached for the almond flour. No almond flour. Huh? I have had adequate almond flour for 2 years, and now I don't? Are you crazy? Well, I guess I'll add in 2 Tbsp almond butter and a cup of coconut flour. Oh wait - it's cement. Add some more water to thin it out. And more, and more.
Final resul - not postworthy. I'm just going to go to bed.
