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!

    I halved the sugar (coconut sugar), used 150g coconut oil and only used two eggs and they've turned out perfectly both times. Our new favourite muffins!

    I substituted sugar for dates. Delicious without the added sugar. Yum!

    Sensational. I also used Sweet Potato. Can't wait to try this recipe with pumpkin!

    I thought I had pumpkin, but didn't, so I used sweet potato instead. Turned out great! Although I should have let the bowl cool after steaming as the chof chips melted in the batter and I ended up with a marbled batter. Was ok though, just added extra choc chips to each muffin before baking. Always up for extra choc!

    These are fantastic. Have made a few times now over past month to use up all the Easter eggs!! Kids love them.

    I LOVE this recipe. I have cooked other versions where I have sucked all the fun out of the recipe, using gluten free flour, 200g brown rice syrup, 150g oil  and 100g choc chips instead of quantities listed. I found that obviously it wasn't as sweet this way but a light dusting of cinnamon and icing sugar fixed that. Obviously you could up the brown rice syrup to 300g and the choc chips to 200g if you wanted to keep the recipe super sweet for an extra treat. They still keep their nice fluffy texture and they freeze well too.

    Lovely recipe! I used maple syrup and less of it. It was still plenty sweet. Thanks for an easy recipe.

    Loved these, though my teenage boys are getting a little worried because I keep making stuff with vegetables in it! Could this be telling them something... mmmm maybe they should just eat veges when I ask them too! LOL Thanks for sharing a fabulous recipe!
