Banana, Honey and Cinnamon Muffins




Well I'm all moved in and loving the new place. I've got the kitchen sorted and was itching to get some baking done this weekend.  I had one disaster (more about that next week) but these muffins put me back on track. And the best thing?  The light in my new kitchen (and study) is great!!  I took heaps of photos as usual, prepared to delete the rubbish ones but there were too many great ones, so I'm sharing them all with you.  I can't wait to really experiment with my food photography as well as my food. 






 And now, Sunday Baking. I still do not have internet connection so have only been online twice this week. Which means I am way behind on my blogs. But I have seen some great recipes to share with you.

Melted butter, for greasing
