MUFFINS

Muffinsa are everywhere and they're pretty horrible usually. Made the day before they weigh down the counter at cafes like lead weights. Eating into them is an unpleasant experience akin to biting into dentist amalgam. Cold, heavy and sickly sweet, most muffins are bricks in fancy dress. On the other hand, a good muffin, moist and full of fruit can be a wonderful experience. Here is the recipe from Eugenius:-
EUGENIUS MUFFIN INGREDIENTS (makes 4 or 5 muffins):
  One cup self-raing flour
  Half cup sugar (or less if you are using jam or marmalade)
  Half cup yoghurt
  One 700g egg
  Three-quarter cup of fruit chopped or stewed - spoon of marmalade or jam optional *
