Mini Almond Butter And Strawberry Muffins Recipes

MINI ALMOND BUTTER AND STRAWBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 24 mini-muffin cups with paper liners.
• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder in a medium bowl to blend. Whisk together the almond butter, sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl to blend. Add the dry ingredients in 2 batches and stir just until blended.
• Fill each muffin cup half-full with batter. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the jam on top of each muffin cup, and then spoon the remaining batter on top to cover the jam. Bake until the tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool.
• Spoon 1/2 teaspoon more of the jam on top of each muffin in the center.

STRAWBERRY ALMOND MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Coat muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy.
• Add the egg yolks, one at a time. Beat well after each.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the dry ingredients.
• With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating two times with the yogurt, vanilla, milk, and orange juice. Beat just until smooth.
• In another bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold into batter.
• Fold in the strawberries and almonds.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, 3/4-full.
• Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Cool for 5 minutes before removing to cool completely.
