Gingerbread Muffins

My BFF baked them for me.

The traditional Christmas flavours are not so dominant in these muffins. They are more nutty than christmassy.

They are easy to bake and are a nice gift in the cold January. But if you like the flavour more intense, add a third more  of the spices.

Recipe for 12:

80 g walnuts

2 eggs medium size

80 ml neutral oil

150 g brown sugar

200 g yogurt 3,5 %

150 g AP flour

100 g ground hazelnuts

2 1/2 tsp gingerbread seasoning

2 tsp baking powder

Topping:

12 chocolate covered almonds

Preheat the oven 180 C.

Chop the walnuts roughly. Mix eggs, oil, sugar and yogurt. In a second bowl mix the other dry ingredients, except the walnuts.

Pour the egg mix over and stir well. Add half of the walnuts and fill the paper cups. Put the other half of the walnuts on top.

Bake for 25 min and when the muffins have cooled down, stick the almonds in.
