Meniu pentru ziua surorii mele / Menu for my sister's birthday

Astazi a fost ziua de nastere a surorii mele ~ La muti ani, draga mea surioara!

Am fost pe la ea sa o ajut cu pregatirile pentru petrecere si astfel am innoit si bucataria din noua ei casuta :)

Meniul a fost simplu, rapid si gustos : pizza de casa (multumiri Mirunei pentru idee) si briose.

Today was my sister's birthday ~ Happy Birthday, my darling sis!

I helped her prepare the food for the party and cooked together in the kitchen of her new house :)

The menu was simple, fast and delicious: homemade pizza (thanks to Miruna for the idea) and muffins.

 BRIOSE CU MERE SI SCORTISOARA / MUFFINS WITH APPLES AND CINNAMON

Ingrediente / Ingredients:

- 1/2 cup (115g) la temperatura camerei / 1/2 cup of butter at room temperature;

- 1 cup (225g) zahar tos / 1 cup granulated sugar;

- 2 oua / 2 eggs;

- 1 lingurita esenta de vanilie / 1 tsp vanilla extract;

- 2 lingurite scortisoara / 2 tsp cinnamon

- 1 1/3 cup (150g) faina / 1 1/3 cup flour;

- 1/3 cup (80ml) lapte / 1/3 cup milk;

- 1 mar si jumatate / 1 and a half apple.

Pasii sunt aceiasi cu cei de mai devreme, insa in acest caz vom avea ca ingrediente uscate: faina, scortisoara, sarea, praful de copt.

La final adaugati merele taiate in cuburi mici si amestecati pana se incorporeaza in aluat.

The steps are the same as before, but in this case the dry ingredients are, flour, cinnamon, salt and baking powder.

In the end add the apple cut into small cubes and mix until well incorporated.

Ambele tipuri de aluat se aseaza in tava de briose si se coc in cuptor pentru 20-22 minute.

Pentru a avea niste briose pufoase nu amestecati prea mult aluatul.

Both types of batter must be put in a muffin tin and bake for 20-22 minutes.

To keep the muffins fluffy do not overmix the batter.
