Eggless Chocolate Walnut Muffin |No oven or microwave Choco Appe

400th POST :EGGLESS CHOCOLATE  MUFFIN WITHOUT OVEN OR MICROWAVE 


Hi friends this is my 400 th post .So thought of posting a sweet dish recipe

A muffin is an American English name for a type of quick bread that is baked in small portions. Many forms are somewhat like small cakes or cupcakes in shape, although they usually are not as sweet as cupcakes and generally lack frosting. They may be filled with sweet fillings, such as chocolate, toffee, lemons or blueberriesThere are many varieties and flavors of muffins made with a specific ingredient such as blueberries, chocolate chips, cucumbers, raspberry, cinnamon, pumpkin, date, nut, lemon, banana, orange, peach, strawberry, boysenberry, almond, and carrot, baked into the muffin. Muffins are often eaten for breakfast; alternatively, they may be served for tea or at other meals.

I tried this muffin in an appam maker especially for those people dont own a microwave or oven & still wanted to make muffins at home .My husbands verdict was it tasted just like readymade muffins only issue was  size so I will call them as mini banana muffins.You can still prepare this in ur kitchen & impress  your family with these addictive mini Chocolate muffins yummies!  .Moreover  it is vegetarian since it doesnt use eggs .

Do not forget to Place a tava /griddle on gas  before placing Appe/ Appam pan/albeskiver pan otherwise your muffins will get burnt & turn black.
