The Banana Muffin

Singapore is currently in a Muffin craze. With muffin shops popping up almost everywhere. Even the papers did a little article (ok large article) about muffins. Well to go with the flow, perhaps for those of you who are craving for a little nuts on your muffins, maybe you should try the ones at The Singapore Marriott Hotel Pastry Shop.

 

For today's afternoon tea at home, I had the Banana muffin (drizzled with Walnuts) and the Apple & Cinnamon muffin (plastered with Almond Slices).

The Apple & Cinnamon Muffin

The nuts add a lovely crunch to the sponginess of the muffins. The muffins by themselves were found not to be too dry or too wet, it was perfectly moist. Usually, the muffins sold at the bakeries would be too dry for my liking and would leave my throat high and parch.

The Marriott's muffins were found to be better, though I must say that the taste could have been slightly sweeter.

Nonetheless, having Marriott's muffins for tea is an excellent afternoon snack...(If you don't mind the calories)
