Time 1h

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
Nonstick cooking spray
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 cup blueberries
1/4 cup coarse sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • For the cheesecake filling: Whisk together the cream cheese, sour cream and granulated sugar in a small bowl until well combined. Transfer to a medium plastic resealable bag and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the batter: Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners and coat with nonstick spray.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the milk, oil, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until well combined and smooth. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  • Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters of the way with batter. Snip the tip off the plastic bag. Insert the tip into the center of each cup and pipe some of the cream cheese mixture into the batter. Sprinkle the top of each cup with 1 teaspoon coarse sugar. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the side the muffins come out clean (not the cream cheese center), 14 to 16 minutes. Cool the muffins in the pan on a rack. Serve at room temperature.

BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE MUFFINS

These muffins won 2nd place in a King Arthur Flour contest. I've been making them since my kids were babies and have brought them to many functions. The yogurt makes them fluffy and the almond flavoring gives them a special bakery flavor. You can substitute pureed cottage cheese for the ricotta.

BERRY CHEESECAKE MUFFINS



Berry Cheesecake Muffins image

A different muffin recipe adapted from a popular cooking magazine which I have subscribed to since the early 90s.. The muffins have a very nice cream cheese and berry filling and if you like berries throughout the muffin, this isn't for you. I don't think I would use frozen berries for this one. Thanks to Janet for reminding me to post my changes which have been in my notes forever. Since I did make a couple of changes and it is not the exact same recipe, I will leave it as "adapted" .

Time 1h

Yield 1 1/2 dozen muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/3 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup milk
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 1/2 cups raspberries or 1 1/2 cups blackberries
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cold butter

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add the eggs and beat well.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder and cinnamon in a separate bowl and add to creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
  • Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. I always grease my paper-lined muffin papers with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Filling ~ In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and egg until smooth. Fold in the berries. Drop a rounded tablespoonful into the center of each muffin.
  • Streusel ~ In a bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over batter.
  • Muffin cups will be full.
  • Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen berries for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen berries, thaw them before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin tins no more than 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These delicious and easy-to-make berry cheesecake muffins are a perfect treat for any occasion. With their soft and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy filling, and creamy cheesecake swirl, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone.
