Notes

  • *1 A large sized egg weighs about 50g in Australia. 
  • *2 Be careful not overmix. You can add milk when you still see some flour left. 
  • *3 The oven temperature will drop when the door is opened. That's why to set the oven temperature to 356°F(180°C). After placing the muffin form in, set the temperature down to 340°F(170°C).  
  • *4 Kuromame can be replaced with choc chip, any nuts, or raisin etc.
