Recipe For A Plum Good Time

Sweet readers, On occasion, I will break from technical and artistic information speak and present something that may seem off-the-wall. However, this is plainly on the kitchen counter.

Plum Good Muffins
2 cups sugar
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup oil
3 eggs
2 small jars of plum baby food
2 teaspoons allspice
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1. Combine and mix ingredients.
2. Spoon into mini muffin pans (large muffins and loaves do not work well)
3. Bake in preheated oven at 325 degrees for about 15 minutes.
Having 2 or more pans speeds the baking process.
**Serve with plum preserves, plum jelly and/or butter.


This recipe originated at the Wild Plum Tea House in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. They have an accompanying hot tea to serve with it, but that is for later. I will suggest that you use your mini-muffin pans and keep the baking swinging. Double the recipe for double the fun. For a really good time, call me to make sure that things are turning out as they should.

I will not promise that these muffins will strip pounds from your frame, relieve pain or have any other positive result other than make you smile, especially if you share them with someone who needs a boosted spirit. Your house will not need Febreze for a while and any family member or guest will salivate when they are bombarded with the smells. Open your windows and offer an olfactory invitation to the neighbors to join you for a treat.

Break out the notecards, BLOG the world or twitter it: I'm BAKING!

It might inspire some picture-taking, calligraphy or a nap. Happy weekend. Tim (c)
