I have been smited by the gods of baking
Nov. 19th, 2006 10:42 amI wanted to make something for our staff this morning, to help with the mood for our "Read to Your Baby" festival (aka the parade of drugged families).
I had a recipe for Apple raisin spice muffins. But when I added the liquid ingredients to the dry, the result was instant glutenation, like I'd overmixed by 300x. Milk didn't help, and ew gross.
Rereading the recipe, I see that it calls for whole wheat pastry flour rather than regular. Yeah, that might cause a little bit of toughness. :\
