Muffin Autumn Spices recipes

Have you ever tried the Autumn Spices Muffin at Tim Horton's? Seriously, those are amazing!

I have tried to find a similar recipe. but unfortunately, I was unable to find one exactly like Tim Horton's.

Instead, I have tried another one and modify it a bit to my taste....Hope you will enjoy it as much as I did!

For 12 muffins 

Cream Cheese Filling 

1/2 cup cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar

Whip together cream cheese and sugar very well.

I've posted enough recipes for Halloween, I think.

Again...Samhain recipes!

I do several posts about Samhain recipes as I didn't want to write one big (long...very long) post about it.

I think it is more clear and less compacted that way.

Samhain recipes

Samhain is knocking our doors and since it is my favorite Holiday, what better way to start this new blog with Samhain recipes!

A great recipe coming from the ''Ye Olde Witches Brew Magazine'', the Barmbrack.

Barmbrack is a traditional Celtic bread served during Samhain with tea, and is the center of a divinatory ritual for the coming year.

To make a traditional Barmbrack, trinkets and charms are always added into the mixture. Naturally, your own charms and meanings can and should be utilized as a part of your Samhain traditions. Each charm should be wrapped carefully in parchment or wax paper and placed equally through the bread before its final rise.
