aunty,
muffin's texture usually a bit 'berat' compared to cupcakes, isn't? but ur muffin's texture looks like cupcake's. spongy (hoooo am drooling).or what does it supposed to be or look like?
correct me if i'm wrong :)
regards, wani ^__^
these look great. chocolate ah !!!!1
Would very much like a recipe on this please!!
Thanks aunty!
hi aunty, care to share this recipe? thx thx
Look so yummy....will you post the recipe? I like bananas and I like choc, both are my fav.
This looks more like cupcakes than muffins.
From what I know, muffins are not cakes and the texture should be more dense and chewy. Infact, those muffins that I have had during my overseas trips are something like a cross between organic bread and cake and are mighty filling. Great to chew on!

Hai Aunty,
Greetings from up north...
what is the cake flour you are using?
...is it different from self raising flour
Hi Joyce,
use all purpose flour or any low gluten flour will do.

hi rajrat,
just use any all-purpose flour will do.
Have fun..

Hi aunty,
Thanks for the recipe. I notice no baking powder is used in this recipe, I am just wondering the batter can actually rise w/o baking powder.
Hi Let's Masak,
Yes it will rise because you have the bicarbonate of soda and the eggs.
rgds
Hi aunty,
Thanks for your reply.
May I know what will be difference if baking powder is added? coz most muffin recipe I seen have both baking powder and baking soda.
Also, may I know can I replace sour cream with plain yogurt? Will there be any difference in the result?
Thanks in advance for your advices. :)
Hi Let's masak.
You noticed that this muffin is not the dense type but you can always try...Yes you can replace sour cream with yoghurt.

Tks for this recipe - can I use cornoil instead of butter?
Hi anonoymous,
you can but definitely Butter will give a better flavour...

Hi aunty.
Thanks for your reply. ^O^
Hi Aunty Yochana,
Recently i just bake this cocoa banan muffins. But somehow, my muffins seems to sag down after it cool and when i eat i can't taste the banana. What's going wrong? Please advice. Thanks
Winnie
Hi Winnie
You overstirred the mixture.
For banana cakes, you won't taste the bananas very strongly cos too much bananas will make the cake heavy and the texture will turn dense. Add in some banana essence if your like.
