Best 5 Bleeding Heart Muffins Recipes

EASY BANANA BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place cupcake liners in a muffin tin. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl mash the bananas with a fork, leaving them slightly lumpy, and set aside.
• In a large bowl stir together the butter and sugar. Mix in the eggs and vanilla and stir until smooth. Add the sour cream, mashed bananas, baking soda, and salt, and stir until blended. Next mix in the flour until incorporated.
• Fold in the blueberries.
• Top each muffin with an equal portion of the coarse sugar if desired.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, and then remove and cool on a wire rack, or serve warm.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Spray a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with cupcake liners. You may need a 2nd pan as this recipe makes up to 14 muffins, though you can always bake in batches using 1 pan. Set aside.
• Coarsely chop the chocolate. Place in a medium heat-proof bowl along with the butter. Microwave on high in 10 second increments, whisking after each until completely smooth and chocolate has melted. Cool for 5 minutes, then whisk in the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and sour cream. Set aside.
• Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Add the wet ingredients and fold to completely combine- make sure there are no flour spots at the bottom of the bowl. Fold in the chocolate chips. Batter will be thick.
• Spoon the batter evenly into each cup or liner, filling each all the way to the top. Bake the muffins for 5 minutes at 425 then, keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C). Bake for an additional 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The total time these muffins take in the oven is about 20-22 minutes, give or take. Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling.
• Muffins stay fresh stored at room temperature for a few days- then transfer to the fridge for up to 1 week.

HEART HEALTHY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Mix together flour, flaxseed meal, oat bran, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt (if desired), and cinnamon into a large bowl.
• Stir in carrots, apples, raisins (if desired), and nuts.
• Combine milk, beaten eggs, and vanilla.
• Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients.
• Stir until ingredients are moistened.
• Do Not over mix.
• Fill muffin cups 3/4 full.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

SWEET MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray bottoms only of 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper baking cups. In medium bowl, beat milk, oil and egg with wire whisk or fork until blended. Stir in Bisquick mix and sugar just until moistened. Spoon batter into muffin cups.
• Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.

BLEEDING HEART CUPCAKES

Steps:

• 1. Line cupcake tins with paper liners. Fill the liners two-thirds full with the batter. Place 1 marble or tinfoil ball between each liner and the tin. This will make a dent in your cupcake when it bakes to make it heart-shaped. Bake the cupcakes as directed in the recipe . If you are using marbles, be careful when removing the cupcakes from the tins because the marbles will be very hot.
• 2. With a small paring knife, cut out a circle about the size of a dime in the center of each cupcake, going about two thirds of the way in. Pull the little plug of cake out. Cut off the top of this piece (about 1/2 inch thick) and eat or discard the bottom. Use a teaspoon or a squeeze bottle to fill the hole partway with the strawberry jelly "blood." Put the little cake plug back in. Continue with the rest of the hearts.
• 3. Put one third of the frosting into two separate bowls. Color one bowl of frosting with the red food coloring. Tint the other bowl of the frosting blue. Tint the remaining two thirds pink.
• 4. Frost the cupcakes with the pink frosting. Make it super smooth by dipping a butter or frosting/palette knife in a bowl of hot water and smoothing it over the top. With the pastry bag or a knife, use the red and blue frosting to make veins on the hearts.
