Tips:

  • Use fresh basil. Fresh basil has a more intense flavor than dried basil, so it is the best choice for these muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature. This will help the muffins rise quickly and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Basil red pepper muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or breakfast treat. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and frozen. With their unique flavor and moist texture, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
