Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 large egg
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh blueberries
¼ cup turbinado sugar (such as Sugar in the Raw®)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with extra-large paper cupcake liners.
  • Beat white sugar, butter, and lemon zest together using an electric mixer in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in ricotta cheese, followed by egg, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Stir into butter mixture until just combined; batter will be thick. Carefully fold in blueberries.
  • Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of turbinado sugar over each muffin.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out mostly clean with some crumbs, 26 to 28 minutes. Remove muffins from the oven and carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool, 15 to 20 minutes.

BERRY MUFFINS

This is a recipe from The Muffin Lady cookbook, that I changed a little bit. It makes a delicious, bakery style muffin. I use a frozen berry mix, and the combination is heavenly.

Time 40m

Yield 6-12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup oil
4 tablespoons melted butter
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces berries, fresh or frozen

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Sift the dry ingredients together.
  • Mix in the eggs, oil, butter, milk and vanilla.
  • Fold in your choice of berries.
  • (I get a blend of frozen berries at my grocery store--raspberries, blackberries, strawberries and blueberries. These make a great mixed berry muffin,and they're much more economical than fresh. But use what you have) Pour into lightly greased, standard 12 muffin pan, or large 6 muffin pan.
  • (Tip-an ice cream scoop makes easy work of this task, and muffins are the same size.) Bake for 30-40 minutes, start checking at 30 minutes or so.
  • Cool in pan on rack for about 5 minutes, then turn on out on rack to cool.

Provided by blucoat

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup ricotta cheese, preferably at room temperature
2 large eggs, preferably at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2/3 cup sugar
1 finely grated lime, zest of
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 -1 1/3 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen) or 1 -1 1/3 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)

Steps:

  • Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter or spray the 12 molds in a regular-size muffin tin, or fit the molds with paper muffin cups.
  • Whisk the ricotta, eggs and vanilla together, then stir in the melted butter.
  • Working in a large bowl and using your fingertips, rub the sugar and lime zest together until the sugar is moist and fragrant. Switch to a whisk and stir in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Put the ricotta mixture on top of the dry ingredients and, using a rubber spatula, gently but quickly stir to blend-don't worry about being thorough. The batter will be thick and heavy and that's fine. Stir in the blueberries.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin molds, slide the pan into the oven and bake 20 to 25 minutes. When fully baked, the tops of the muffins will be golden, springy to the touch and a knife inserted into the center of the muffins will come out clean. Pull the pan from the oven and carefully lift each muffin out of its mold and onto a rack to cool.

Tips:

- Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor. - If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes. - For a sweeter muffin, add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar. - If you want a muffin with a more tender crumb, use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour. - Be sure to not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins. - Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing in the oven. - Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. ###
