because they really are. Dry ingredients ... wet ingredients ... mix but not too much. Really, how could it be easier ?!! I hadn't baked muffins since ... mid June, because we were not home ... and it was really nice baking these muffins with, I must precise, my little muffin baker (hey, I'm preparing the next generation ahah !!), who'll turn six in 8 days from today. (please someone pinch me, six whole years can't have possibly passed already)
so, here's the recipe. But before I start, I must say that I used fresh berries, and I could have easily doubled the quantity. Unless yours are very sweet, you can use more than what I used for the recipe.
made me 28 good sized muffins
ingredients :
375 g flour, sifted ~ I used organic wholewheat
2 eggs
18 g baking powder ~ dose for 500g of flour
100 g brown sugar + few to sprinkle on top ~ I used blonde sugar
375 ml milk ~I used semi-skimmed milk
150 g melted butter, unsalted
18 g vanilla sugar
150 g fresh & whole blackberries, rinced
150 g white chocolate, cut into small pieces
100 g rolled oats
unsalted sesame seeds, enough to sprinkle each of your muffins
all ingredients but the chocolate were organic, for the record.(just in case it is useful for you to know)
preheat the oven at 200/220°C ~ 400/425°F.
either grease your muffin molds with melted butter or oil, or don't grease it, if you own a flexible mold like I do.
in a large bowl, sift the flour & add the sugars, the baking powder, the blackberries, chocolate bits & rolled oats & mix in.
whip the egg with the milk. Mix in with the dry ingredients with a metal spoon, but DO NOT knead too much. The dough must be irregular & full of lumps ! The success of making muffins resides in making the dough very irregular & not kneading it much !
fill your molds (3/4 of each - to let the muffins rise) with a teaspoon (easier).
Sprinkle a bit of sugar & sesame seeds on each muffin. Press a bit with the other side of your spoon. (so that the seeds will stick to the muffin & not fall everywhere when you'll take a bite !!)
Put in the oven for 23-25 mn (200/220°C ~ 400/425°F).
enjoy !
and have a wonderful day !

you are so sweet to share the recipe
ReplyDeletetamara wants to bake muffins for a ben's grandmother in law who had a heart attack a few weeks ago.
I will share this recipe with her
we might substitute olive oil based margarine for the butter since that is a tad healthier for the heart than butter.

I love that you put the sesame on top. I want a cup of coffee now.
ReplyDeleteThese look fantastic and easy too! Perfect now that the blackberries are ripe and ready to eat. Thanks Sonia !
