White Chocolate Streusel Cranberry Muffins - FOOD PHOTO SHOOT

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

So it's been a very eventful past 24 hours for all of us blockchainers and crypto-fanatics, has it not?

Anyway, I think it's a pretty generally observed fact that when one member of a big family gets the flu, everyone has it. Haha, at least when you've got little ones. Yep, the season's bug is going around and I'm gladly getting passed the end of it and I'm feeling thankful it's a very minor one.

For me it was just really annoying mostly because I don't know what to do with myself when I'm sick. You know, like when you aren't sick enough to want to lay in bed and do nothing, but still sick enough that you don't want to do much of anything?

Well, at least that's how it goes for me. I'm a terrible sicko. One of the things I always do enjoy though, is being in the kitchen to bake something that doesn't require much work, like these muffins for example. Don't worry my germ-freak friends, I'm also a germ-freak so I probably washed my hands any time I even thought about sneezing. Not that it did much good because, as I said, we all had it already.

But real life aside, these muffins are definitely worth a try. I pulled out an old favorite recipe and adapted it to fit what I was wanting to make and they turned out super light and fluffy. By the way, the original recipe used blueberries and I'd definitely recommend that if you either don't like the tartness of cranberries or simply just like blueberries more.

Oh, and I can't forget to mention that if you use a traditional muffin tin the slots will be very full so you'll have some extra happy muffins, hehe. If you want you can fill the cups a little less and just bake some in a second pan or make in batches. What I did, and recommend, is using reusable silicone baking cups because they are lifesavers when it comes to baking. Seriously, you need them in your kitchen and in your life. I used my first set to their death because I loved them so much.

I hope you're all enjoying the holiday season and baking something delicious.

XOXO

I know, right? Haha, thanks for your great support my friend @kus-knee! Happy Holidays!

Cranberry and white chocolate are a match made in Heaven - thanks so much for this recipe. I have (and love) my silicone muffin tin, but I haven't used the individual silicone liners/cups. I'm thinking about getting them though after a recent paper-picking extravaganza from banana bread muffins. Glad you're better from the flu :) Maybe it'll be a one and done for the winter :)

Oh, you're so sweet @jaymorebeet! Thanks for the well wishes and I def recommend the silicone individuals!

These look wonderful - thank you for sharing.

You're very welcome @wrladyhawk! Happy Holidays!

I'm so hungry now thanks to you. LOL. Great photos, I tried to get into food photography but It was difficult to capture great photos so I stuck with landscape and architecture :)

I know what you mean, it's definitely a challenge sometimes. Thanks for your support @drawesome24!

Amazing photos... Looks delicious
