Using ricotta cheese ensures a light and fluffy texture while resulting in a moist and delicious muffin. Enjoy these lemony treats for breakfast or a sweet snack. Ingredients:
7.9 ounces all-purpose flour (1 3/4 cups) |
3/4 cup granulated sugar |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese |
1/2 cup water |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
cooking spray |
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 3 ingredients (through salt); make a well in center. Combine ricotta and next 5 ingredients (through egg). Add ricotta mixture to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
3. Place 12 muffin-cup liners in muffin cups; coat with cooking spray. Divide batter among muffin cups. Sprinkle turbinado sugar over batter. Bake at 375° for 16 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in pan on a wire rack.
