Tip

  

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Can you use olive oil instead of coconut oil and would it be the same amount

    Made these muffins today. Delicious. Freaked out about the 1&1/2 tablespoons of baking powder but it worked.

    Do you really use 1 1/2 tablespoons of baking powder? Or is that a typo?

  • 3. February 2018 - 15:41

    Wow, I did not expect these to taste this good. Thank you so much for this recipe!

    These were tasty but not a hit here. Would grate the pumpkin more as well as the almonds if I was to make them again.

    Easy to make,and yummo. It made 12 large cupcake muffins and 18 mini ones. Next time may add more nutmeg or another spice. But prefect how they are too.

    These were really nice. Wasnt sure how to remove from the muffin tray so a little was stuck from each muffin.

    These are absolutely yummy. I didn't have onion powder so finely diced an onion, sauted it in a tsp of oil which worked well. I also added some fried and diced bacon which tasted sensational. These were lovely and moist even the next night. Love them!
