Poppy Seed Muffins With A Hint Of Almond Recipes

ALMOND POPPY SEED MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
• Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add egg yolks one at a time, allowing the first to blend into the butter mixture before adding the last. Beat almond extract and lemon zest into the mixture.
• Stir flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, mixing until just combined into a batter. Fold poppy seeds through the batter.
• Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks; fold into the batter. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups to about 2/3 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 15 to 18 minutes; remove from pan and let cool on rack.

• In a medium mixing bowl, sift flour, poppy seeds, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center.
• In a large measuring cup, combine milk, oil, egg and almond, beating well. Add to flour mixture all at once, stirring only until moistened (batter will have a few lumps).
• Divide between muffin cups, about two-thirds full.
• Bake at 400 for 12-14 minutes (tops are golden brown). Cool for five minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt remaining butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Put sugar in another small bowl.
• Dip tops into melted buter, then into sugar to coat. Cool for a few more minutes (if the hungry mungers aren't clamoring too loudly!).
• OPTION: Add 1/4-1/2 cup chopped almonds to the dry ingredients after sifting, blend well.
• SUBSTITUTION: Try lemon flavoring instead of the almond. Ymmmm-good! And a bit of lemon zest with the sugar topping. Even better.
