Black Forest Fruits Muffins Recipes

BLACK FOREST MUFFINS

Steps:

• Combine applesauce and baking powder in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Puree zucchini in food processor.
• Add cherries and pulse a couple times, until cherries are chunked up (you don't have to completely puree mixture, unless you have really picky eaters). You should have about 3-4 cups of mixture.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Add applesauce, oil and zucchini/cherry mixture.
• Add enough buttermilk to make a thick batter. Amount really varies depending on your flour, your cherry mixture, and on the humidity.
• Pour batter into muffin tin, about 3/4 full. (I don't use liners, I just spray tin with cooking spray).
• Bake @ 325 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Fold the fruits into the batter until incorporated. Spoon the mixture evenly into the muffin cases. Bake for approx. 25-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Leave the black forest muffins to cool in the tray for 10 mins before turning out to cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container.

BLACK FOREST MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat 350ºF for 20 to 25 min, or if knife is clean. Cream butter, sugar and vanilla together in a large bowl, mix eggs together a small bowl first then add milk. Mix together coffee to warm water, add to bowl with wet ingredients. After sift together all the dry ingredients to the bowl, mix until combined. Grease a muffin pan, or line with muffin cups, then add batter. Bake in a pre-heated 350ºF oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until batter comes out clean. ( depending on your oven ) When baked let rest for 10 minutes then release unto a cooling rack. When muffins are cool remove from pan and place on plate, cut a hole in the middle of each muffin about 1 inch round. Then add cherry filling in each muffin hole, and top with spray whipped cream, then top with grated chocolate or chocolate chips. Bonita's Tip: Shifting flour will make the flour a cake like texture. If you are using salted butter you can leave out the sea salt. You can use freshly whipped cream and put in a decorating holder to add to muffin tops.
