CHERRY ALMOND MUFFINS



Cherry Almond Muffins image

Alon's Bakery in Atlanta has the most delicious cherry muffins with slivered almonds on top, and this is the closest recipe I've found to make at home. This comes from the BBC's Good Food website, but I adapted it to be lighter. You can also use frozen sweet cherries in place of fresh, which are usually pitted.

DRIED CHERRY ALMOND MUFFINS



Dried Cherry Almond Muffins image

My friend, Biscuit, had sent me some lovely, dried, Mount Rainier cherries and I wanted to use them in a muffin. I found Mean Chef's Recipe #41601 here and used that as a jumping off point. As my cooking/baking is wont to do, the recipe morphed quite substantially from the original, but kept the basic integrity of Mean's recipe. The cherries are the star of the show here- plump and full of flavour. I wanted to add another 'flavour' to the muffin that would set off the cherries and thought of the almond paste in the cupboard, and that went in too. Ingredients were changed and adjusted here and there...I cut the sugar back to half a cup as I figured the fruit and almond paste would provide lots of added sweetness and, well, please try it. You will be pleased.

Time 45m

Yield 16-18 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces dried cherries, cut into pieces roughly size of raisins
8 ounces almond paste, crumbled (actually, I used a roll of almond paste that was 200 gr)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
8 ounces butter, melted and cooled
3 extra-large eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal (or polenta)
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F (175C). Line 2 muffin tins with muffin liners. I got 16 nicely-sized muffins out of this recipe. Half fill any empty muffin containers with water to distribute heat while baking.
  • Toss the dried fruit and almond paste with the 2 tblsps of flour to coat. Set aside.
  • Combine all the wet ingredients in a bowl and whisk to blend.
  • Combine all the dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine and distribute well.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry and stir to mix. Stir in dried fruit and almond paste. Do not overmix. You will have a very thick batter.
  • Fill muffin tins to just above top of liner (easy to do as batter is so thick).
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and test done with a toothpick.

CHERRY ALMOND MUFFINS



Cherry Almond Muffins image

I recently purchased a muffin and bread book at a used bookstore. Came upon this recipe and recalled the jar of maraschino cherries leftover from Easter and thought it was a tasty way of using up what I otherwise use strictly as garnish. It initially stuck me as odd to use maraschino cherries in an otherwise healthy recipe, but the results are so tender and tasty I think of this is redemption for the poor dyed and preserved fruit. What is presented here includes my changes to the original.

Time 28m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup Splenda sugar substitute or 1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
3 large egg whites
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
2 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1 cup maraschino cherry, drained and halved
1/3 cup sliced almonds (unblanched or blanched)
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Lightly spray muffin tins with cooking spray. (You can also use liners but the direct contact with the pan gives the exterior a crisper exterior.)
  • In a large bowl combine the flour, Splenda, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda.
  • In a medium bowl, beat egg whites until they are well-frothed but not stiff. If you have meringue, you've gone to far. Add the yogurt and almond extract and beat a few more seconds.
  • Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients, mix until just combined. Over mixing will result in some tough puck-like muffins. Gently fold in the cherries and almonds.
  • Fill muffin cups two-thirds full and bake for 18-20 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean.
  • Serve warm. I like mine with Brummel and Brown spread.
  • Enjoy!
