Delicious muffins. The streusel topping immediately smelled like the real thing! So good. I’m vegan so I adjusted accordingly (used coconut oil and cashew milk). Thank you for the recipe.
Hi Suguna, Found your blog recently through Chitrasfoodbook and spent an afternoon browsing your recipes 🙂
I have a bag of frozen mixed berries that I need to finish. I wish to bake muffins with them.
Can the “frozen” ones be substituted in place of fresh ones in a mixed-berries-muffin recipe ?
If yes, any suggestions from you ?
Also, planning to try your Annapurna Sambar recipe this week. My daughter dislikes tomatoes, I was wondering if I could skip the tomato mentioned. Must I increase the tamarind quantity to replace the tomato ?
Thanks-in-advance !
Regarding berries, it depends on the recipe.
Regarding the sambar, you can skip them and adjust the tamarind to what your family likes.
Tried ur vanilla cake…..awesome…..got a perfect one after trying so many other recipes????
