My Baking Disaster...


Pandan Chiffon Muffin
My sister and GQ were both having a good laugh when these muffins couldn't stop expanding while in the oven and then the muffin tops got so bloated that they were pushing each other down while fighting for space. The outcome was a complete flop with the top sinking in once out of the oven and the middle portion all filled with air.

Lesson learnt:

Do not add baking powder indiscriminately.




Apple Muffins

I was initially prepapring myself for a luscious treat...looks pretty good ya?



But if you take a look at the 'before' photos now, it is obvious that the top portion of the paper cupcake liners were totally burnt and because the liners were not non-stick surface, the muffins ended up mostly inedible.

Lesson learnt:

Do not buy fanciful pretty-to-look-at cupcake cases and then ending up with poor end product.




Peanut Soft Buns

As the name suggests, this was supposed to be soft and fluffy...

Not a cousin of Popeye's biscuit...





Sis: Hey I think you should leave some by the main gate!

Me: ????

Sis: Hard enough to use as a weapon against any intruder!

Me: !!!!!!



I used the leftover dough from the previous bun flop for this hot dog roll...of course expecting another flop.

Lesson learnt:

Invest in a good electric mixer for kneading novice.
