1½ teaspoons packed light brown sugar
1 cup warm water (105-115°F)
⅔ cup rye flour
1¾ cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons finely grated fresh orange zest
¾ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon anise seeds
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
¾ teaspoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus additional for greasing
2 tablespoons molasses (not blackstrap)

an instant-read thermometer; 2 nonstick mini-muffin pans with 12 (1¾-inch-wide) muffin cups

Steps:

Add flour mixture along with melted butter, molasses, and remaining ¾ cup warm water to yeast mixture and beat with an electric mixer at medium speed 5 minutes.

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter muffin pans.

  • Dough can be made (but not allowed to rise) 1 day ahead and chilled, bowl wrapped tightly in plastic wrap. Put chilled dough in muffin pan as directed and let rise 1 hour, then proceed with recipe.
  • Muffins can be made 2 days ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Muffins keep, frozen in sealed plastic bags, 2 weeks. Reheat on a baking sheet in a preheated 350°F oven until muffins are heated through, 8 to 10 minutes for frozen.
