Plain Bakery Style Muffins

 

Want blueberry muffins? Fold in a cup of blueberries. Prefer chocolate chips? Stir them in. Like things simple? These plain muffins are delicious on their own with just butter and honey. The neutral base takes on whatever flavors you add in – vanilla extract, lemon zest, cinnamon, or even savory additions like cheese and herbs. And that means that with this recipe, you’re learning one muffin recipe where the limits are your own imagination.

 

1/2 cup butter, softened

2 large eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup whole milk

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp. baking soda

2 tsp. baking powder

Pinch of salt

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F° and line a muffin tray with parchment paper. Set aside. In a large bowl, whip butter, eggs, and sugar. Add yogurt and whip again until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and mix until half incorporated. Slowly add the milk, mixing on low until a thick, smooth batter comes together. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared muffin tray. Bake for 25-30 minutes, depending on the range of your oven and the size of your muffin pan (I used a large muffin pan). The muffins will be golden, and the cake tester will come out clean. Remove and let rest on a wire rack to cool. Serve with your favorite jam, a pat of butter, or a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Lemon Poppy Seed MuffinsLemon Poppy Seed Muffins

 

2/3 C. sugar

Grated zest and juice of ½ lemon and 1 lime

2 C. all-purpose flour

2 tsp. baking powder

¼ tsp. baking soda

¼ tsp. salt

¾ C. plain yogurt

2 eggs

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

½ C. unsalted butter, melted and cooled

1½ T. poppy seeds

 

Preheat your oven to 400. Grease your regular sized muffin pan with butter, spray or really any kind of lipid that you want coating your muffins.

In a large bowl, rub the sugar and lemon/lime zest together with your fingertips until the sugar is moist and the smell of lemon and lime engulfs your kitchen. Whisk in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl whisk the yogurt, eggs, vanilla, lemon and lime juices and melted butter together until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and with a rubber spatula, gently stir to blend. DO NOT OVER STIR THE BATTER! If you over stir the batter it’ll result in tuff and chewy muffins. Lumpy batter is ideal. Stir in the poppy seeds. Divide the batter evenly among the muffins cups.

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a thin knife inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool for a few minutes before carefully removing each muffin from its mold. Store leftovers (if there are any) in an airtight container at room temperature.

Strawberry Muffins

Strawberry Muffins

Strawberry Muffins

 

2 large eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking soda

1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt, or light or full fat sour cream

1 heaping cup diced fresh strawberries, rinsed and dried

 

½ cup powdered sugar

4 to 5 teaspoons heavy cream or half-and-half, or more to reach desired consistency

½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray or line it with paper liners. In large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer. Add the granulated sugar and beat for a minute or two until completely combined. With the beaters running, pour in the oil and then add the vanilla. In a separate medium bowl, stir together the flour, salt and baking soda. Using a wooden spoon, mix the dry mixture into the wet mixture, a little at a time, alternating with the Greek yogurt. Add the strawberries and mix with the wooden spoon just until combined. Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 10 minutes and then carefully remove from the muffin pan to cool completely. For the Glaze: Combine ingredients for the glaze in a small mixing bowl, using about half of the amount of cream stated. Add just enough of the remaining cream to reach a consistency that allows the glaze to run off the tip of a spoon. Drizzle over the completely cooled muffins. Store leftovers in an airtight container.

Rosemary Garlic Focaccia Muffins

Rosemary Garlic Focaccia Muffins

Rosemary Garlic Focaccia Muffins

 

1 ¼ tsp active dry yeast*

1 tsp honey**

1 ¼ c warm water

2 1/2 c bread flour***

2 tsp sea salt

¼ c extra-virgin olive oil, divided

2 tbsp butter, melted

2 tbsp finishing salt, like Le Saunier de Camargue Herbes De Provence Fleur de Sel

 

1/3 c extra virgin olive oil

2-3 sprigs of rosemary, minced

3 garlic cloves, minced

 

Focaccia Muffins: Day one:   Mix the yeast, honey, and water together in a large bowl. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture gets foamy and yeasty. Add the flour and salt to the bowl, and mix everything with a large spoon or spatula until a rough dough forms. The dough may still seem wet, but it should hold together. Drizzle about 2 tbsp of olive oil on top of the dough, and gently turn the dough in the oil so it’s coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge overnight, at least 8 hours. The dough will double in size.

Day two: The next day, drizzle an additional 2 tbsp of olive oil on the dough and give the dough a quick knead to deflate it in the bowl. Turn the dough out onto a lightly oiled counter. Pat it into a rough rectangle (the dough will still be a little sticky). Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, divide the dough in half, and then cut six pieces from each half for a total of twelve pieces of dough. Grease a muffin pan with olive oil. Divide the dough into the muffin tins. The dough does not have to be perfectly round, but it should fit snugly into the tins. Allow the dough to rise, covered, for about 2 hours. The dough will slowly rise inside the tins.

Rosemary Garlic Topping: Meanwhile, prepare the Rosemary Garlic Topping by heating the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, turn off the heat and add the minced rosemary and garlic. Remove the pan from the heat and gently swirl it around to quickly cook the rosemary and garlic. This should only take a minute. If it starts to burn, transfer the mixture to a bowl.

Preheat the oven to 450 F degrees. Oil your hands and poke deep holes all over the top of the dough. Don’t be shy–you want there to be lots of holes that touch the bottom of the pan! Drizzle about 1 tsp of the rosemary garlic oil evenly over each of the muffins. You may not use all of the oil. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Brush the hot focaccia muffins with melted butter and sprinkle with the finishing salt.

Place 1 1⁄2 C. apple cider in a small saucepan. Over medium heat, bring to a boil and reduce until it is 1⁄2 cup. Let cool while assembling other ingredients. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease your 12-C. muf- fin pan generously with the cooking spray. In a medium bowl, mix the dry ingredients from the flour through the orange zest. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the 10 T. of butter, add the sugars and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, scraping the bowl as necessary until well mixed. Add the vanilla and mix thoroughly. Add the flour mixture and mix just until well combined. With the mixer running low, add the reduced apple cider until well combined, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl. Divide batter evenly among the 12 muffin C. and bake for 15–20 minutes, until the center bounces when lightly touched and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Melt the 6 T. butter, put aside, and mix together the sugar and orange zest in a small bowl. Brush each hot muffin generously with butter and divide the sugar evenly on the top of muffins. Drizzle with any remaining butter and allow to cool somewhat before removing from the pan. These are great served warm, and they also keep for several days in a tightly lidded container.

Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins

Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins

Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins

Makes 12 muffins (1 per serving)

 

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 25 minutes

1/2 cup coconut flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

6 large eggs, lightly beaten

1/3 cup raw honey

1/4 cup coconut oil or ghee, melted

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

2/3 cup canned pure pumpkin puree

Unsweetened coconut flakes, for garnish

 

Preheat the oven to 35O°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with silicone or parchment paper baking cups. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a large bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, honey, coconut oil, vanilla, and vinegar. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until there are no lumps. Fold in the canned pumpkin. Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about three-quarters full. Sprinkle the coconut flakes on top, pressing them down gently into the batter to make them stick. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Noelle’s tip: To make blending the batter easier, pulse the dry ingredients in a food processor until relatively smooth, then add the wet ingredients and pulse until blended, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to make sure everything’s incorporated. Change it up: Top the muffins with raw pumpkin seeds, pecans, or walnuts.

Lemon Curd Marbled Muffins

Lemon Curd Marbled Muffins

Lemon Curd Marbled Muffins

1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt

1⁄2 cup sugar

1 egg

1⁄2 cup plain yogurt

1⁄2 cup whole milk

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

1 cup lemon curd, divided

Preheat the oven to 350°F Line 12 muffin cups with cupcake liners. Put the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl and whisk lightly to aerate and combine. Mix the egg, yogurt, milk, and melted butter together in a pitcher. Pour them into the dry ingredients and mix lightly, stopping as soon as everything is combined – it’s essential not to overmix or you’ll get dense, cakey muffins. Add 2/3 of the lemon curd in 6 or 7 dollops and quickly “marble” it lightly through the mixture (a couple of light stirs is really all that is needed). If your lemon curd is a bit stiff, just add it in little blobs. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups, to three-quarters fill them. Bake for about 30 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Eat on the day you bake them, ideally while still slightly warm, topped with another dollop of lemon curd.

1/2 cup white sugar

1/4 cup margarine, melted

3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 cup milk

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup margarine, melted

1/2 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 24 mini-muffin cups. Mix 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup margarine, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Stir in the milk, then mix in the baking powder and flour until just combined. Fill the prepared mini muffin cups about half full. Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are lightly golden, 15 to 20 minutes. While muffins are baking, place 1/4 cup of melted margarine in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Remove muffins from their cups, dip each muffin in the melted margarine, and roll in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Let cool and serve.

Ham and Cheddar Lunch Box Muffins

Ham and Cheddar Lunch Box Muffins

Ham and Cheddar Lunch Box Muffins

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, divided
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
8 ounces thick-cut deli ham (1/2-inch thick), diced
3 tablespoons finely chopped chives, divided
Freshly ground black pepper

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 375°F. Line a standard 12-well muffin pan with papers liners or coat the wells with cooking spray. Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, garlic powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and 5 tablespoons of the butter in a medium bowl until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until just combined. Some lumps are fine. Fold in the cheese, all but 1/2 cup of the ham, and 2 tablespoons of the chives. Spoon the batter into the muffin wells, filling each about 3/4 full. Top the muffins with the reserved ham, sprinkle with the remaining chives, and sprinkle with pepper. Top each muffin with 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining melted butter. Bake until the tops just begin to brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool the muffins in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. RECIPE NOTES: Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or in the freezer for 3 months. Eat cold or reheat in the toaster oven for a few minutes before serving.

Pull Apart Bacon French Toast Muffins

Pull Apart Bacon French Toast Muffins

5 C. of bread cut into 2cm/1″ cubes (fresh or stale – see notes 1 and 2)
3 rashers bacon, diced
Oil spray

3 eggs
1¼ C. milk (low or full fat)
1 tsp sugar
2 pinches salt

Maple syrup (optional)

Combine the Egg Mixture ingredients in a bowl and whisk with a fork until combined. Add bread cubes and mix well to each piece of bread is well coated with the Egg Mixture. If using fresh bread, set aside for 10 to 30 minutes in the fridge. If using stale bread, set aside for 20 minutes to overnight. If you’re in a rush, use your hands to gently squeeze the cubes to help them absorb the egg mixture faster. Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Spray a medium fry pan with oil spray and heat on high heat. Add the bacon and cook until just starting to brown. Don’t cook until it is very brown because otherwise it will overcook in the oven. Remove bacon from fry pan and drain on absorbent paper. Spray 6 holes in a muffin tin. Mix the bread-egg mixture to evenly disperse the egg mixture that will have settled at the bottom of the bowl. Divide ⅓ of the bread-egg mixture between the 6 muffin C.. Sprinkle with half the bacon, then press the mixture down with medium pressure using the back of a spoon. Top with the remaining bread mixture. Use your fingers to lightly compress them. Each muffin should be slightly mounded even after lightly compressing them. The bread cubes on top will puff back up when you bake it. Sprinkle with remaining bacon. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the top is golden brown. Let rest for 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Serve with maple syrup, if using.

Pizza Muffins

Pizza Muffins

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 235 grams (8 1/3 ounces/1 2/3 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, optional
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature and lightly whisked
  • 227 grams (8 ounces by weight) jarred or homemade pizza sauce
  • 1/4 cup mini pepperoni or chopped pepperoni
  1. Heat your oven to 400 degrees F and line a 12-cavity muffin tin with muffin liners.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
  3. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and let cool for five minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder (and optional salt).
  5. Add the eggs, pizza sauce, and pepperoni, and stir. Stir in the cheeses.
  6. Fold in the flour mixture until fully combined. The batter will be thick.
  7. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
  8. Bake the muffins for 23 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes and then turn them out and let cool for at least 5 minutes more on a wire rack.
Egg Muffins

Egg Muffins

eggm15 eggs (for silicone muffin pans, use 12 eggs for metal muffin tins or individual silicone cups. You can use less egg yolks and more egg white if you prefer.)
1-2 tsp. Spike Seasoning (optional, if you have food allergies or don’t have Spike, use any type of seasoning blend that’s good with eggs.)
1-2 C. grated low fat cheese
3 green onions diced small
Optional: chopped veggies such as blanched broccoli, red pepper, zucchini, mushrooms, etc.
Optional: diced Canadian bacon, lean ham, or crumbled cooked turkey sausage

Preheat oven to 375 F. Use regular or silicone muffin pan, 12 muffin size. If using silicone pan, spray with nonstick spray. If using regular muffin pan, put two paper liners into each slot, then spray liner with nonstick spray. In the bottom of the muffin C. layer diced meat, if using, vegetables, if using, cheese and green onions. You want the muffin C. to be about 2/3 full, with just enough room to pour a little egg around the other ingredients. Break eggs into large measuring bowl with pour spout, add Spike, and beat well. (I used to add a bit of half and half or milk, but lately I like the way they turn out without it.) Pour egg into each muffin C. until it is 3/4 full. I like to stir slightly with a fork. Bake 25-35 minutes until muffins have risen and are slightly browned and set. Muffins will keep more than a week in the refrigerator. Egg muffins can be frozen and reheated, but I like them best when they are just refrigerated. For best results, thaw in refrigerator before reheating. Microwave on high about 2 minutes to reheat. Use silicone muffin tins or individual silicone C., spray them with nonstick spray, and put them on a large cookie sheet to catch spills. The two ingredients I think are essential are cheese and green onions. Other than that, the varieties are endless. Put cheese, meat, or veggies in the muffin C. first, then pour in beaten eggs. When muffins are done, loosen them with a knife before popping them out of the silicone muffin pan. Let the muffins cool for 15-20 minutes before you store them in the refrigerator. (I used to freeze them, but I find they keep in the fridge for over a week and I like them best when they haven’t been frozen.) Here’s my favorite way to do it. As soon as the muffins have cooled, put two at a time into small plastic bags. Put the bags in the refrigerator. Then when you need a quick breakfast, open the bag, pop in the microwave until they’re hot, grab the bag and run out the door with a quick breakfast. (Don’t heat for too long or they can get rubbery.) I confess, I eat them in the car on the way to school.

1 tablespoon grated orange zest

Muffin Batter:

2 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour

1/3 cup (65 grams) granulated white sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup (240 ml) milk

1 large egg, lightly beaten

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Orange Zest

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Place rack in the middle of the oven. Butter well or spray, with a non stick vegetable spray, 12 muffin tins. Cranberry Sauce: In a medium sized saucepan place the cranberries, sugar, orange juice (or water), and orange zest. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves and the cranberries start to pop open, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly while you make the batter. Muffin Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted and cooled butter. Add the milk and egg mixture to the flour mixture. Stir just until combined. Do not over mix the batter or the muffins will be tough when baked. Evenly divide the cranberry mixture among the 12 well greased muffins cups and then evenly spoon the batter over the cranberry sauce. Place in the oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool for about 2 minutes, and then invert them onto a cooling rack so the cranberry topping is face up.
