This post about the Saturday farmers market shall begin and end with a favorite fall purchase.
They may look like ordinary ho-hum muffins to you. But they are not. These are not a heavy, dense, nut/fruit laden, chewy muffin. No sir, they are not. Instead they a light, soft, tender, buttery, with a cinnamon/sugar sprinkle, and a lovely, slightly crusty bottom, sort of muffin. Yes they are. The pumpkin spice cake looked completely fantastic as well, but the muffins were calling.
The Arkansas Black were my apple selection this week.
I was delighted by the intrepid spirit of this bold short-wearing market goer! She assured me that short season still had a few weeks to go.
Small succulent starts in jack-o-lantern pots... darling.
One day I swear I am going to get to the market at 0630 and film them setting up this display of radishes. Seriously, it's a puzzle. An engineering feat. A marvel.
Here is what came home this week.
And now you know why I did not get cake. These muffins only make a very limited appearance at the market. Maybe once or twice in October and then at the Holiday market. They freeze very well and if possible are even better when popped in the oven for about 10 minutes for warming.
As an added bonus, in the heating, they make the kitchen smell insanely good.
