Ok, ok, I know this recipe sounds potentially…problematic (code for EEWWWWW), but I implore you to try it out first before judging. This muffin recipe is unique, I’ll grant you that, but its origin comes from one of my favourite Canadian cookbook authors, the late, great Edna Staebler, who, with several cookbooks to her name,…

Recipe Post (updated): Al Trotter’s Signature Spaghetti Sauce (or, How I Got Sh*tfaced Just By Eating Dinner)
