Blackberry Muffins

by Tina Basu
I am such a dessert lover, I can almost never say no to anything sweet. That’s probably the same with all the Bongs. I guess lately I have been bitten by the baking bug, these days I can only think of Crème brûlées, cakes, muffins…
It’s a little difficult to arrange things for a hassle free baking exprerience in Bangalore, I think. I have been searching store after store for decent butter sheets and muffin trays and have returned dissapointed from many. Even the supposed largest lifestyle store’s sales people didn’t know whats a ramekin! Can you imagine that.

Anyways now that I have collected many – thanks to Indro & his work trips- I thought lets get into the baking mood and make some muffins! yay. So here goes the easy little Blackberry Muffins… Don’t worry if you don’t get any fresh blackberry… I also didn’t… use a ready made blackberry preserve!
