Wake Up and Smell the Cake

Made apple cobblers instead of the usual apple muffins, because I wanted to try something with less sugar/flour and more apples. I made 6, using my Daiso ramekins that rarely come out of the cupboard. Surprisingly the Husband said it's yummy. Took the recipe from the first website I came across, food.com . Apple Cobbler 4 apples, peeled and diced 1 cup flour 1 cup sugar (can reduce) 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder 1 egg 1/2 cup butter, melted Cut the apples and coat them with the cinnamon powder. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar and egg together. Sprinkle the flour mixture on top, then pour the melted butter over. Bake for 30-40 minutes until top is browned and crispy. On hindsight, if the butter was mixed with the flour mixture, I suspect it'll be fine too. Somehow I feel like it's missing something. It's sweet, but not lemak. Not like pie. Maybe cos there's too much sugar. Maybe I'd prefer an apple pie crust instead.

Yesterday I was on a cooking frenzy, and I stopped short of making apple cobblers. I'll do that soon! I'm expecting it to be better than apple streusel pie. I made ayam sambal, though still didn't quite get the same taste as my mum's, but almost there. That was settled in the morning. And near lunch time, I made homemade chicken nuggets for my kids. Have been wanting to try this because I've read reviews saying that kids love homemade nuggets, and also we had them on the island hopping trip in Krabi recently.  Was also a good opportunity to clear the fridge! As usual. Haha. That goes to show how much stuff I buy but don't actually have full purpose for them. HAHAHA. Homemade Chicken Nuggets 1/2 kg chicken breast 1 cup panko breadcrumbs 2/3 cup freshly grated parmesan 1/4 cup flour 1/2 tsp salt (or more, depends) sprinkle of pepper & smoked paprika 1 egg Pound the chicken breast slightly so that the meat can cook quickly. Slice thinl

Repeat recipe: Tyler Florence's Banana Muffins I've been wanting to make banana muffins over the weekend to use up the leftover bananas and yoghurt sitting in the fridge. Finally got some time yesterday night. My little girl sorta helped, it's not always that she wants to bake! I have lots of chocolates here and there and I can't possibly eat them all. Here I've used up 24 mini Toblerones muahahaha. I still have another 2 bags of mini Toblerones though! I don't know why but they don't taste as good anymore. I'm quite picky with chocolates these days. A sign that I'm getting older, plus I don't want to waste calories cos it's so hard to burn! Speaking of burning calories! I've been getting comments that I look slimmer, or that my face is slimmer now (must be the tudung) but honestly I feel the same. I still have babats and my flat tummy target is far from achieved. But at least my butt doesn't jiggle as much when I jog, cos tha
