Minnesota Stay-At-Home Day 6
Baked cherry muffins this morning. My fumbles in the kitchen reminded me of Captain Barbossa from The Pirates of the Caribbean: “The code is more what you’d call guidelines...”
Didn’t have plain yogurt in the house, so I substituted vanilla. Beat in 1 egg instead of 2 egg whites before I read that step in the recipe. Didn’t have oat bran either, so decided 1/2 cup of flour mixed with 1/2 cup of oats would be close enough.
Only when I added the cup of frozen cherries, did I realize almonds weren’t on the list of ingredients. But I clearly remembered our favorite cherry muffins having almonds. Turns out I should have used the strawberry almond muffins recipe, in which I substitute 2 cups of cherries. And that would explain why I froze my cherries in 2-cup batches instead of 1-cup batches.
