APPLE RAISIN BRAN MUFFINS (WITH FLAX SEED) image

Categories     Fruit     Breakfast     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Muffin     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cup raisin bran
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon milled flax seed
3 tablespoons water
1/3 cup milk
1 egg
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 apples, peeled and chopped

Steps:

Spoon into greased muffin tins up to the lip of the tin. Bake 15-30 minutes, depending on altitude (the higher the altitude, the longer you'll need to cook them).

Note: If you don't have flax seed, add another egg and don't add the 3 tablespoons of water. Note: The brown sugar can be substituted with the same amount of maple syrup.

Apple raisin muffins are a delicious and nutritious breakfast or snack option that can be made easily at home. The recipe is a combination of fresh apples, raisins, and other basic ingredients that are commonly found in most kitchens. With the right recipe, these muffins are incredibly easy to prepare and make and require minimal prep time.

Ingredients

The key ingredients used in making these muffins include:

1. Apples

Fresh apples are the star ingredient in these muffins, and they add both texture and flavor. Tart or sweet apples work equally well in this recipe, depending on your preference.

2. Raisins

Raisins provide a burst of sweetness and chewiness, making them a perfect pairing with the apples. To enhance the flavor and texture of the raisins, soak them in hot water for about 15 minutes before use.

3. Flour

All-purpose flour is used in the recipe to provide structure and bulk to the muffins.

4. Sugar and honey

Granulated sugar and honey are both used in this recipe to provide sweetness to the muffins. The honey also adds moisture, making the muffins softer and more tender.

5. Baking powder and baking soda

Baking powder and baking soda are added to the recipe to help the muffins rise and become fluffy.

6. Cinnamon

Cinnamon is used in the recipe to add flavor and aroma.

7. Eggs and butter

Butter and eggs bind the ingredients together and add richness to the muffins.

Instructions

The recipe can be divided into four broad steps:

1. Preparing the apples

The first step is to peel and dice the apples into small pieces. Once done, set them aside.

2. Soaking the raisins

The raisins should be soaked in hot water for about 15 minutes before use. This step will help to plump up the raisins and provide a burst of flavor in the muffins.

3. Mixing the batter

The dry ingredients, including the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, should be mixed in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix together the wet ingredients including the eggs, butter, vanilla extract, and honey. Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Finally, add the diced apples and soaked raisins to the batter.

4. Baking

Preheat the oven to 375F and grease a muffin tin with butter or cooking spray. Fill each muffin cup with the batter, leaving a little bit of space at the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin.

Apple raisin muffins are a perfect treat for breakfast or brunch, and they are easy to make at home. However, if you're not careful, your muffins could end up dry and flavorless. With these valuable tips, you can ensure that your apple raisin muffins turn out perfect every time.

Tip #1: Choosing the Right Apples

The type of apple you choose will make a big difference in the taste and texture of your muffins. Granny Smith apples are a popular choice, as they are tart and hold their shape well when baked. However, if you prefer sweeter muffins, you may want to use Honeycrisp or Gala apples. Regardless of which type of apple you choose, be sure to peel and core them before using.

Tip #2: Soaking the Raisins

Raisins are a common ingredient in apple muffins, but they can be dry and tough. To prevent this, soak the raisins in hot water for about 10 minutes before using. This will plump them up and make them softer, so they blend seamlessly into the muffin batter.

Tip #3: Using Buttermilk

Buttermilk is a common ingredient in baking, and for good reason. It adds a tangy flavor to muffins and helps make them moist and tender. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of milk and letting it sit for a few minutes.

Tip #4: Measuring Accurately

It's important to measure your ingredients accurately when making muffins. A kitchen scale is the most accurate tool, but if you don't have one, be sure to use measuring cups and spoons that are accurate and consistent. Too much or too little of an ingredient can throw off the balance of flavors and textures in your muffins.

Tip #5: Mixing the Batter

When mixing your muffin batter, be careful not to overmix it. Overmixing can cause the muffins to be tough and dense. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, and then stop. It's okay if there are still a few lumps in the batter.

Tip #6: Adding the Apples and Raisins

Fold the chopped apples and soaked raisins into the batter gently, using a spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to break up the apples too much, as you want them to be visible in the muffins. Distribute the apple and raisin pieces evenly throughout the batter for the best flavor.

Tip #7: Baking the Muffins

Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a muffin tin with paper liners. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with batter. If you want taller muffins, fill them almost to the top. For smaller muffins, fill them about halfway. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Tip #8: Cooling the Muffins

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents them from sticking to the pan and also helps set the texture. If you want to serve warm muffins, reheat them in the oven for a few minutes before serving.

Tip #9: Storing the Muffins

Muffins can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. To freeze muffins, wrap them individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place them in a freezer-safe container. Muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Conclusion
Apple raisin muffins are a delicious and wholesome treat, and with these tips, you can ensure that your muffins turn out perfectly every time. From choosing the right apples to measuring your ingredients accurately, these tips will help you bake muffins that are moist, tender, and flavorful. So get out your mixing bowl and start baking!
