#MuffinMonday



I'm here today in defense of the muffin. Poor thing. It really gets a bad rap and I say without cause or reason. Here's just a couple of insults the muffin has to put up with.

      






See what I mean? Well I'm here to stick up for the muffin because unless it is overbaked, dry, and tasteless muffins are amazing. And they are NOT ugly.

Does these look ugly to you?

I hope you are seeing my point. And in further defense of the muffin let's discuss the bran one shall we? Bran has a weird reputation. When I was a kid I thought just the word itself sounded like it would taste like nothing. And I do think bran can be tasteless and bland - but just like any ingredient, it depends on what you do with it. People, there are some really good bran muffins out there that deserve our attention. Here's the Sour Cream Bran Muffin recipe from Epicurious, and if it's from Epicurious then you know it's good.

So give the muffin some love and attention today. Your taste buds will thank you for it!
