Good morning! We had a good weekend, but it was really really hot to the point where I ironed clothes in aircon and with the fan on haha. Also! It's the start of my 3rd trimester yay! And what a way to start 3rd trimester than a dream about giving birth. Such a tiring dream -_-
Saturday morning I cooked an early lunch for Husband's korma ayam brunch (yup repeat telecast), and later I made apple raisin muffins which he approves!! Seldom does he approve fruit related bakes so this is an achievement! He did ask though if eating that qualifies eating fruit. I would like to think so too ahhahaha.
I've made apple cupcakes using this moist apple cake recipe! I've used this before, in an earlier post. Totally love it. I added raisins as well for a sweeter bite. Would have been nice to have walnuts too.
Moist Apple Mini Cakes
4 apples, peeled cored & diced
3/4 tbsp cinnamon
3/4 tbsp sugar (supposed to be 3 but I followed wrongly but still turned out fine with less sugar)
1 1/2 cups flour (I cleared out my self raising flour 3/4 cup and remaining 3/4 cup I used cake flour)
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk (supposed to use orange juice)
Vanilla powder
2 eggs
Handful of raisins

Dice the apples and put them in a bowl. Add the cinnamon powder and 3/4 tbsp sugar and mix well with the diced apples.
In a large mixing bowl, add the sugar, flour, baking powder, vanilla powder and stir. In a measuring cup, measure out the oil, add eggs and milk and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient bowl and mix till combined.
Add in the diced apples and raisins, transfer to a cupcake pan and bake at 170 degrees Celsius for 24 minutes. Makes 20 cupcakes.
My little baker was upset when he realised I baked and didn't get him involved. So at the last minute I let him fill up the cupcake liners haha.

Here's a photo of Junior sleeping in the bus on the way to my mum's. He was so tired yet he didn't want to sleep, and finally caved in even though the bus ride was about 10 minutes. Plus it was really really hot.
