PEANUT BUTTER MUFFINS



Peanut Butter Muffins image

Based on a recipe from Bruce Weinstein's & Mark Scarbrough's book, "The Ultimate Peanut Butter Book". I'm wild about peanut butter! The authors say, "Muffin tins don't come in standardized sizes. This recipe was developed for a tin in which each indentation holds about 1/3 cup batter. If yours holds more, increase the baking time by a few minutes; if less, decrease accordingly." These may also be customized, per the authors, by stirring in "2/3 cup dried cranberries, raisins, or semisweet chocolate chips in with the flour. Or add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon with the vanilla."

Time 55m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

nonstick cooking spray or paper baking cup
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2/3 cup sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 large egg
1 large egg white, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk, plus
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Place rack in center of oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Lightly spray the 12 indentations of a standard muffin tin with nonstick spray, or line each indentation with a paper muffin cup; set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt, if using, in a medium bowl; set aside as well.
  • Beat the peanut butter, sugar, and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Beat in the egg, then the egg white, and finally the vanilla until smooth.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and beat in the milk until creamy and light, about 1 minute.
  • Remove the beaters and stir in the prepared flour mixture with a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula, just until moistened. The batter may still be grainy but no white pockets of flour should be visible.
  • Fill the muffin-tin indentations three-quarters full. Reserve any leftover batter for a second baking.
  • Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted into one of the muffins comes out dry, about 20 minutes.
  • Cool the muffins in the tin on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then pop the muffins out of the tin and cool completely on the rack.
  • They can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Or place them in a zip-closed plastic bag and freeze for up to 4 months.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY MUFFINS

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

2/3 cup whole-wheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 cup honey-roasted peanuts, finely chopped
1 cup strawberry or grape jelly or jam

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk both flours, the baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk 1/3 cup peanut butter, the milk, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl; stir into the flour mixture until just combined.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them three-quarters of the way. Tap the bottom of the pan lightly on the counter to smooth out the batter. Bake until the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack to cool completely.
  • Using a melon baller or teaspoon, scoop out a shallow hole in the middle of each muffin. Melt the remaining 2/3 cup peanut butter in the microwave until loose, stirring halfway through, 45 to 60 seconds. Spread the peanuts on a plate. Dip the top of 1 muffin in the melted peanut butter, letting the excess drip off, then dip it in the chopped peanuts to coat. Transfer to the rack and repeat with the remaining muffins.
  • Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon jelly or jam into the hole in each muffin. Let set 5 minutes.

  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent the muffins from breaking.
