Chocolate muffins are loved by almost every one of us. I wanted to try my hands on muffins for long time, but could not decide on a recipe. I bookmarked a recipe but it had complicated measurements, so at last minute, I got the recipe from here. And the recipe dint disappoint me. It came out good. It tasted similar to the eggless chocolate cake. With simple ingredients, it does comes out sinfully delicious. It is very easy too, that beginners in baking, like me, can try it out without giving a second thought. The muffins were soft and chocolaty, do try it out yourself to believe me!
Ingredients ( for 8 muffins)
| All purpose flour | 3/4 cup |
| Coco powder | 2 & 1/2 tblsp |
| Sugar | 1/2 cup |
| Baking soda( bicarbonate of soda) | 1/2 tsp |
| Salt | 1/4 tsp |
| Oil | 1/4 cup |
| Cold water | 1/2 cup |
| Vanilla essence | 1 tsp |
| Lemon juice / vinegar | 1 tsp |
Method
|
Enjoy the chocolaty muffins. Give a day for the flavours to get incorporated well, though it tastes good immediately. So if you want to eat tomorrow, make today and keep!

ReplyDeleteWhich oil can we use for cakes??
ReplyDeletei just put the cake in the oven and realized i forgot to add the lemon juice :( :(
ReplyDeleteim hope its edible ;(
Aparna,
ReplyDeleteyou can use vegetable oil or sunflower oil. I used sunflower oil.
Sushila,
Lemon juice will just affect the texture of the cake. It will be still edible!
thank u mam,.....our family is purely vegetarian and i love 2 cook and bake ......your recipe really helped as I have successfully baked chocolate ckae as well as muffins......Thank u once again
ReplyDeleteregards....Praggya
hey, iv just got to thank u very much for ur receipes. im vegetarian and iv always had to watch my friends eating cakes without me, and now i can bake my own.lol. thanks. by the way, when u say coco, u mean chocolate(cocoa) right? just checking or is there something powdered special for baking. because, God knows they have all sorts of stuff now.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dhanisha for your feedback...coco powder is the pure coco not the eating chocolate,coco powder is specially for cooking and baking...
ReplyDeleteHi Rajeswari, which microwave you use for baking? You use Micro wave with baking option or electric oven?
ReplyDeleteYes combination oven, in convection mode...
ReplyDeleteCan keep for how long ya, dear?
ReplyDeleteWell I stumbled across your recipe and the results are just cooling now! :) They look so lovely and soft so hopefully they will taste as good as they look!
ReplyDeletei an expert with your orange cake recipe..thanks to you. Can I use the same orange cake recipe to make muffin? What is the temperature to be used then? My oven, I normally choose auto bake. Can I use that, it will take 5 min to pre heat and 35 min to bake.
ReplyDeleteSure, just adjust the timing. it may get baked sooner... :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your receipe...My Muffins were a hit..made it specially for Rakhi this time..I never cook and now something's changed :-)
ReplyDeleteWow its so easy & yummy recipe really
ReplyDeleteHi, stumbled upon ur recipe. I am going to put the mixture into oven. Will post after 30 mins.
ReplyDeleteHi, i tried this recipe yesterday... It turned out the the top layer was baked but the lower part of the muffin was unbaked.. I baked it for some more time. Then the top layer got charred out but the lower layer was still unbaked..
ReplyDeleteBasically i faced the problem of uneven baking of different portions of the muffin..
Any idea what could have gone wrong? I have Godrej Microwave oven and i baked in Grill Convection mode for 20 minutes.
Any inputs will really help me....
Thanks,
Gayathri
You dont have any convection mode (alone)? If so try baking in convection mode itself. And also give some time for the cake to cool. If you check immediately , then it will be moist under.
ReplyDeletecanv use sesame oil for this rajii?
ReplyDeletecan v use sesame oil for this raji?
ReplyDeleteWhich oven do u use and there is no baking powder in it? how come?
ReplyDeleteIt has baking soda in it right? So that is enough in this baking recipe.
ReplyDeleteAwesome muffins. I would add a lil less sugar than the recipe states. but the flavor was so much more enhanced by next day.
ReplyDeleteI tried this muffin recipe it turned out so perfect and tasty...Thanks...

Hi Raji,I'm in India and i use OTG(morphy richards) for baking,can i use the same settings(temp and timer) u mentioned here??I don hav a microwave,i heard that the microwave cooks faster than an OTG/electric oven...so pls help me here...
ReplyDeleteYou can bake this recipe, it will come out good in OTG. All the best.
ReplyDeletecan i use melted butter instead of oil??
ReplyDeleteNeeded an eggless muffin recipe, and here it is! Great use of the pictures to accompany the instructions too. They turned out brilliantly, thank you for posting!

ReplyDeleteNo idea, sorry :)

ReplyDeleteHi
I am regular visitor / follower of the blog. It's just awesomely explained step by step. I like it a lot and makes cooking very easy.. I wont satisfy in cooking until the item turned out exactly the way you have shown in your pictures. :-)
As per your notes, these muffins taste good if baked a day before.
I am wondering if do we need to keep these muffins in a the refrigerator if baked a day before. I am going try this baking for the first time, hence, wants to get this clarify... little confused. I wanted to bake this for my son's class party in next two days.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Ratna
I think no need, you can just keep it covered outside too. :)
DeleteHi, I tried your recipe, but for some reason my muffins did not rise much, even though i filled it till the level specified by you. Could you plz tell me what could be the reason for it not rising? I used a Sunflame OTG to bake it.
ReplyDeleteI think either excess water/liquid or excess baking powder/soda will make your muffin look sunken.
