APPLE POPPY SEED MUFFINS



Apple Poppy Seed Muffins image

How is it that lemon got married to poppyseed in certain baked goods? Poppyseed I can take, but I don't like lemon...However I found this recipe, which gives me my poppyseed with something infinitely more palatable, apple! In addition I replaced some of the white flour with wheat, replaced white sugar with brown sugar and traded egg substitute for whole eggs...Try it, you'll like it!

POPPY SEED MUFFINS

Meet the Cook: Because these muffins are a bit heavier than many of the snack type, they are perfect for when you wake up hungry. They're quick and easy, too. I adapted them from a poppy seed quick bread I was served once at a neighbor's. My husband and I are the parents of three sons - 16, 15, and 12. -Kathy Smith, Granger, Indiana

POPPY SEED MUFFINS



Poppy Seed Muffins image

These are the best muffins I have ever made. They are not low-fat but I don't worry. (I can watch other stuff - these are too good) I make them in the jumbo muffin pans but they will work in the normal size - just adjust the baking time.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 eggs
2 ½ cups white sugar
1 ⅛ cups vegetable oil
1 ½ cups milk
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ tablespoons poppy seeds
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons almond extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar
¼ cup orange juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Beat together the eggs, 2 1/2 cups white sugar and vegetable oil. Add in milk, salt, baking powder, poppy seeds, vanilla, almond flavoring, and flour. Mix well.

  • Remove muffins as soon as you can while still warm/hot and dunk tops into glaze. Turn right side up and cool on a cookie rack. With loaves just pour the glaze evenly over the three loaves while still in pans. Let cool to a warm temp. and remove from pans. Yes, it is a little messy but it is really good.

Warm in pan until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over loaf pans or dunk muffin tops into glaze when cooled to room temperature. (Omit the glaze altogether if you don't like the mess.)
