Apple & Cinnamon Muffins, Easy and Delicious

Happy Friday! I want to share a recipe I tried last weekend. It's really easy and the result was very good. This recipe is for apple muffins but you can use whatever you want instead of apples, like chocolate chips, blueberries and so on. In fact this is a basic muffin recipe.

Ingredients for 18/20 muffins:

375 gr flour

100 gr white sugar

100 gr brown sugar

2 eggs

120 ml oil

a pinch of salt

1 tbs cinnamon

1 envelope baking powder

vanilla extract

240 ml buttermilk (120 ml milk + 120 ml yogurt + 1 tsp lemon juice)

300 gr apples (about 2 apples) cut in small pieces

juice of 1 lemon

Pre-heat the oven at 180°C

First cut the apples and put them in a bowl with the juice of 1 lemon. Mix the liquid ingredients first (I used my new Kenwood Kmix), then add the dry ones. 

Add the apples to the mixture, folding gently

Fill the muffin liners about 2/3 and sprinkle the top with a bit of brown sugar

Put them in the oven at 180°C for 20 minutes

Et voilà! Delicious apple & cinnamon muffins!

Hope you like this recipe, let me know if you try it!

Have a great weekend, see you on Monday!

Love, Fede

Night Beauty Essentials

Happy hump day Girls! Hope your week is going great! Today I wanna show you a new product I just got. On my bday I got a Sephora gift card as a present, I know, I'm a lucky girl. I spent days thinking what I could possibly get, and finally, considering my skin's needs (I'm in my early 30s) and the excellent reviews that I read online, I decided to get Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair. It's a serum you put on before bed and before your usual night cream, and after using it for a few weeks I can say that my skin is looking better and more radiant in the morning.

Pj's: Victoria's Secret / Mani: Essie Don't Sweater it

I'm not gonna lie, this product is great but it's expensive, and I probably wouldn't be able to buy it if it wasn't for the gift card. So as an alternative I can suggest a very good and more affordable night cream from Sephora that I've been using for a few months and works very well with my skin (I have combination skin). It's Sephora's Total Age Defy Night Cream.

I'm also thinking about buying a good eye cream but have no idea what to get, do you have any suggestion for me? Thank you!

Feeling Blue

Hi Girls! For my bday my cousin gave me this fantastic present: a box of mini OPI Nail Polishes! She got it from Sephora. I was so excited to try one, I decided to start with the deep blue which is called "Dating a Royal". Do you like it? I was afraid it might be inappropriate for the office but I got many compliments for it. I'll show you the other colors as soon as I try them.

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!
