What happens when you make muffins without baking soda or baking powder?

[Sanity Claws]

I am about to find out in a few minutes.

The muffin tin was already in the oven for about 3-4 minutes before I realized that I had forgotten those ingredients. I hope that they are edible, even if kind of flat. That was about $4.50 worth of ingredients. I just hate wasting money and food.
I suppose birds might be able to eat them even if they are not very tasty for humans.

1. They'll taste fine

Cookies maybe

2. Did you use self-rising flour? It might help some though...

[Sanity Claws]

3. No.

All oatmeal. I don't digest wheat well and avoid it.

4. I'm the same way.

They might turn out like hockey pucks, but maybe not too bad if it was self-rising flour.

Like the bird idea!

5. hockey pucks

blueberry hockey pucks

should be fine but not the texture of muffins

6. put a lot of butter on them.

Butter makes everything better, when baking goes sideways.

7. It's happened to me... They come out flatter.

Still edible, and you might try spritzing water into the microwave and try to rehydrate a bit.. 20-30 seconds. Try on one first.

8. Result: flavor okay but wrong texture

They are not hockey pucks but certainly not fluffy or airy.

I won't throw them out but I wouldn't serve them to anyone other than myself. Maybe a few birds.

In the future, I should measure all ingredients and have them out on the counter before mixing anything together.

10. Glad they turned out somewhat okay.

11. My baking mishaps ...

... almost always taste okay as toast.

13. haha

I'll keep that in mind for next time.

16. Good idea, called

'mis en place,' a French culinary phrase which means "putting in place" or "everything in its place". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mise_en_place

12. I laughed

because that is very similar to my name in real life.
You hit the nail on the head.

14. Repurpose those unmuffins.

They'll freeze so you can pull out a couple whenever you like. Besides eating them as is, use crumbled muffin topping on ice cream, sliced fresh fruit, or yogurt. Crumble one or two and mix into your next batch of muffins, or try mixing some in pancake batter. If they can be sliced without falling apart, fry muffin strips in butter and serve with honey, jam, syrup or peanut butter.

15. Ingenious!

Thanks for the ideas.

18. grind them up and put them in soup? Use them like bread crumbs?

Reminds me of the time I broiled banana bread.... I could not figure out why the bottom was still wet........... duh..

19. Do you like bread pudding?

You might be able to break up your muffins, add milk, eggs, sugar, or other flavorings, and make a nice bread pudding. Or make French toast.

At least you can have them for yourself. Maybe like chewy granola bars?
