Bonus: I’m pretty sure about one third of me melted during this entire baking/photographing process so I think that means I’m good for another 6 muffins. Ok, wait, stop. I need to tell you a little story about why I have this amazing table. I am a dork about finding old, textured, worn pieces to use as backdrops for my food photos. Bjork would not let me take my old wooden board on the plane (and yes I seriously considered it for about 2 minutes) so here I am in the Philippines shopping for a piece of old wood that is not going to bring a termite infestation into our apartment. At the market this weekend, I saw that table. Scratched, graffitied, at least 6,000 years old and so wonderful. It was piled high with colorful cloths and it was clearly not for sale. I went over and asked the man if I could please buy this table. Wait, ma’am, he said. He ran around the corner and came back carrying a brand new, completely polished and totally spotless table. After several minutes of confusing translation between father, son, and ridiculous American girl explaining that yes, I actually wanted the OLD one, they agreed to let me buy it. And now I can’t wait to set up my food photos on it. End of story. Now please go make peanut butter and honey muffins and cover them with melted butter. 4 from 24 reviews This recipe makes 6 muffins.
