Ricotta Raspberry Muffins Food

RICOTTA RASPBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees; line 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, cheese, butter, lemon zest, and vanilla until well blended.
• Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just blended.
• Gently fold in raspberries.
• Divide batter equally among prepared muffin cups.
• Bake for 17-21 minutes or until tops are golden and a pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then transfer to the rack to cool.

RICOTTA-BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

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.

PUMPKIN-RASPBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix wet ingredients together in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl add the dry ingredients, stir, then add into the mixing bowl. Beat until mixture looks creamy. Put 2-3 tablespoons into each muffin liner/container. Cook for 20 minutes.

BRAN & RASPBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Line a muffin tin with foil muffin cups and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large bowl, mix the flour, bran, baking powder, and baking soda until well incorporated.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites and molasses until frothy. Whisk in the applesauce and milk.
• Pour the liquids on top of the dry ingredients and stir until just incorporated - do not over-stir.
• At this point, you can cover the batter and leave in the refrigerator overnight. The fruit should be added just before baking.
• Very gently fold in the raspberries, trying to prevent the fruit from breaking. Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the batter into each muffin cup, filling each completely; these muffins do rise, but not as much as the high-fat versions.
• Bake for 25 minutes until golden-brown.
• Remove the muffins from tin and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes.

RICOTTA-BERRY MUFFINS

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.
