1 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 egg whites
1/2 cup dark raisins or chopped

Combine the flour and baking powder, and stir to mix well. Add the

Coat muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray, and fill 3/4 full with
the batter. Bake at 350F for 16 to 18 minutes, or just until a wooden
toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

before removing the muffins. Serve warm or at room temperature. Typos

posting two responses to 'remove' posts. I shouldn't be so quick to
send them off. I have to remember to delete the cc to the list.
Okay, and to make it legal, I'll attach a recipe.

The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be traced way back into antiquity, in fact as far into history as pharonic Egypt, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
In an interesting twist, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to Professor Solomon Katz, are a few tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel `exhilarated, wonderful and blissful`. Moving our culinary historical trip onwards, there were some interesting books which were published in the fourteenth century ; a recipe book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these have no connection with the indian curry that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of food on the menus of the rich people of those days. Later on, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from Arab cuisine, including spices like basil and coriander. These new culinary innovations caused an explosion in books on cookery, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. Over the next few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of Wesstern Europe strove to offer the most extravagent banquests, and because of this the best chefs and their recipe collections were highly sought after. Notwithstanding that, it wasn`t until the 19th century that cookery and cookery books reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to collating, testing, and writing down the recipes that were being prepared for the better households. When we get to the 20th century, cookery books were greatly in demand as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and being a little richer. The arrival of TV brings us TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which brings us neatly to the present day and the invention of the internet, allowing everyone to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site. |
