Apple Cinnamon Muffins

You may know it or not, but I am truly devoted to baking and try to do it as often as I can. I'm always in in terms of trying new recipes like fancy cupcakes, it's just sometimes I crave for something classic; something comfy that makes me feel good.
Apple Cinnamon Muffins are my go-to recipe to achieve that feeling. You only need very simple ingredients but the results are fantastic and always delicious!

You need (for 13-14 muffins):
• 3 small apples
• 200g of plain flour
• 100g of sugar
• 100g of butter
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar (or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract)
• a few drops of lemon flavor

Directions:

1.) Grease your muffin pans or put paper moulds in them.

2.) Peel the apples.

3.) Remove the cores and dice the fruit flesh.

4.) Beat eggs, butter, sugar, vanilla sugar and the flavor until fluffy.

5.) Mix flour, baking powder and cinnamon in a separate bowl.

6.) Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, then fold in the diced apples.

7.) Preheat your oven to 180°C and transfer the batter into the muffin pans.

8.) Let the muffins bake for 20-25 minutes until they're golden brown.

See me in the oven door, haha!

Hope you liked this recipe!

Everyday Eye Makeup: Quick, Easy and Crease-free!

Hey lovelies!

Today I went through my collection, found some lovely eyeshadows and fell in love with them again. So I just created a very quick makeup look this morning and thought I would show it to you! The best thing about this look is: it doesn't crease on me (and I have very oily lids!).

So to keep it short and sweet, here's how to get the look:

1. Apply an eye primer all over you lid to make your shadows last all day.
2. Take a shimmery beige cream shadow and put it all over your lid.
3. Use a big shader brush and swipe some light beige shadow with a pearl finish over the cream shadow.
4. Take a big fluffy brush and contour your crease with a matte medium brown eye shadow.
5. Line your upper lash line with a chocolate brown eyeliner (and use it to slightly darken your lower lash line as well).
6. Curl your lashes and apply your favorite mascara.

That's it! You can do this look in five minutes and you will look absolutely gorgeous wherever you go that day!

Extra tip: Use a rosy blush on your cheeks and a light pink lipstain on your lips to add some color to your face.

I hope you enjoyed this look!

Love,
