Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 16 to 18 mufins

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cups milk
2 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups diced fresh strawberries
1 1/2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Stir with your hand to be sure the ingredients are combined. In a 2-cup glass measure, combine the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Make a well in the middle of the dry mixture, pour the wet mixture into the well, and stir until just combined. There will be some lumps but don't overmix the batter! Add the strawberries and sugar and stir gently to combine.
  • Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the muffin cups to fill the liners. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean and the tops are nicely browned.

STRAWBERRY MUFFINS WITH CANDIED ALMONDS



Strawberry Muffins With Candied Almonds image

Classic strawberry muffins get a few modern twists in this cheery take. First, egg yolks replace whole eggs, resulting in a richer, more flavorful crumb. The muffins get a double dose of strawberries: diced fresh berries in the batter and an optional dusting of freeze-dried strawberries on top. Finally, a reserved egg white is tossed with sugar and sliced almonds to make a crunchy topping for the muffins. As always, for the best flavor, pick the ripest, brightest strawberries of the bunch.

Time 1h

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/3 cups/320 milliliters whole milk
1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
3 1/2 cups/450 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 eggs, whites and yolks separated
1 1/2 cups/300 grams granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for the topping
1 cup/95 grams sliced almonds
12 tablespoons/170 grams unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks), melted and cooled
2 cups/370 grams fresh strawberries, finely chopped
1/3 cup/5 grams freeze-dried strawberries (optional)
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a standard muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
  • In a cup, stir together the milk, lemon zest and juice; set aside to curdle.
  • In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute; set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk 1 egg white (save the other for another use) with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar until slightly frothy. Fold in the almonds; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar and butter until combined. Add egg yolks and continue whisking vigorously until the batter is slightly aerated, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, alternate adding 1/3 of the flour mixture and 1/3 of the milk mixture, folding gently, until you've added three batches of each beginning with the flour and ending with the milk. The batter will be thick. Gently fold in the fresh berries.
  • Divide the batter among the liners in the muffin tin. (The liners will be very full, but the muffins will not rise much while baking.)
  • Pinch the almond mixture between your fingers and let the excess egg whites drain away before dividing evenly all over the tops of the muffins. Bake for 12 minutes, then lower the temperature to 325 degrees and continue baking until a toothpick inserted into the muffins comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. Let cool for 5 minutes, then gently remove the muffins from the pan to cool completely before serving.
  • In a mortar and pestle, food processor or resealable bag, combine the freeze-dried strawberries and confectioners' sugar, if using, and crush until fine. Dust generously over the cooled muffins using a fine-mesh strainer.

PERFECT STRAWBERRY MUFFINS



Perfect Strawberry Muffins image

These light and airy strawberry muffins are effortless to make. We love adding a light spice to the batter with cinnamon and finely ground black pepper. The black pepper is a little unusual, but adding just a tiny amount lifts all the flavors in the muffins. Feel free to leave it out, but we highly recommend it.

Time 30m

Yield Makes 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups (195 grams) all-purpose flour
3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
1 large egg
1/3 to 1/2 cup (80 ml - 120 ml) milk, reduced fat or whole milk are best
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 ounces strawberries, hulled and diced, about 1 cup diced
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 12 standard-size muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and the black pepper in a large bowl until well mixed.
  • Using a measuring jug that holds at least 1 cup, measure the vegetable oil. Add the egg, then fill the measuring jug to the 1-cup line with milk (this should be 1/3 to a 1/2 cup of milk).
  • Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and whisk until blended. Pour into the bowl with flour and stir with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix. The muffin batter will be pretty thick - see note below). Stir in the strawberries.
  • In a small bowl, stir one tablespoon of sugar with a 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla.
  • Divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups. (The batter will come close to the tops of the paper liners). Lightly sprinkle vanilla sugar topping over muffins.
  • Bake muffins until tops are golden brown, no longer wet, and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with crumbs, not wet batter; 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB MUFFINS



Strawberry-Rhubarb Muffins image

While rhubarb works wonderfully in baked goods, baking strawberries into scones or muffins can be a little bit more of a challenge. Though delightfully sweet and fragrant when fresh, baked strawberries have a tendency to become watery and bland. This recipe solves that problem by macerating the diced rhubarb and strawberries with sugar before folding them into the muffin batter. Doing so not only draws out excess moisture from the strawberries, but also gets a head start on breaking down the fibrous rhubarb. This recipe calls for an ample amount of sugar, which balances the tartness of the rhubarb and helps create wonderfully browned and chewy muffin tops. Finally, the cornmeal in this recipe adds great texture and gives the muffins a rustic finish. Opt for medium-grind or stone-ground cornmeal, if you can find it, but fine cornmeal works well, too.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray (optional)
1 cup small-diced fresh strawberries (about 6 ounces/170 grams)
1 cup small-diced fresh rhubarb (about 4 ounces/113 grams)
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
8 tablespoons/113 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted and slightly cooled
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup/227 grams sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon
1 1/2 cups/192 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/60 grams medium-grind or fine cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon Demerara or turbinado sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners. (If not using a nonstick pan, spray the exposed metal with nonstick cooking spray.)
  • Combine the strawberries and rhubarb in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon sugar; toss and set aside. Place the rest of the sugar (1 cup plus 3 tablespoons), along with the melted butter and eggs, in a large bowl. Whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds, until the yolks are pale and the mixture is smooth and glossy. Add the sour cream, vanilla and lemon zest, and whisk just until smooth.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. (Be careful not to overmix.)
  • Transfer the fruit mixture to a strainer set over a bowl or the sink. Toss with a spoon, allowing any excess liquid to drain. (The amount will vary depending on the ripeness of the berries.) Discard the liquid and add the fruit to the batter, folding it in until just combined.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or large spoon, divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups. (The cups will be very full and slightly heaping.) Sprinkle the tops with the Demerara sugar and bake for 18 to 23 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean and the muffins spring back when lightly pressed.
  • Let the muffins cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then carefully transfer them to a rack to cool completely. The muffin tops may spread into each other slightly as they bake; simply cut the tops apart with a paring knife when the muffins come out of the oven and immediately run the knife very gently under the edges of the muffin tops to release them from the pan, being careful not to separate them from the bottoms.
