nigella's baklava muffins

the school is celebrating teacher's day
insyirah wants to make muffins for her teachers
just because teacher zarina love the muffins that i made before :p
but this time i chose the recipe from nigella's book
the filling & topping ingredients are similar to baklava: nuts and honey
hopefully teacher zarina will like this one too :)

insyirah does it by herself :)
lembut & crunchy
simply delisioso!

i use ikea's muffins papercase.. which is quite big.. yields only 10pcs.
but the filling yields 20pcs. so i just doubled the muffins recipe & got 20pcs.
