A simple muffin with golden raisins. Personally, I would add cinnamon to the topping and leave out the raisins. Some nuts would be a nice addition too. From Everyday Food Ingredients:
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more |
unsalted butter, for pan |
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar |
2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled) |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup granulated sugar |
2 large eggs |
3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk |
3/4 cup golden raisin |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and butter a 12-cup standard muffin tin. 2. In a small bowl, using your fingertips, combine 2 tablespoons butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup flour; set aside. 3. In a large bowl, whisk together remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 4. In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, beat remaining 4 tablespoons butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. 5. Add eggs one at a time; beat after each addition until combined. 6. Add flour mixture and buttermilk in alternating batches, beginning and ending with flour mixture; beat until just combined. 7. Fold in raisins. 8. Divide batter equally into tin; top with brown-sugar mixture. Bake until browned and a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before lifting muffins out onto a cooling rack. 9. Serve warm or at room temperature. |
