Categories     dessert

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup bacon fat (can substitute oil)
1 egg
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
10 basil leaves, chiffonade
1/4 cup bacon, chopped
3/4 cup amish blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Combine the bacon fat, egg, water, milk, sugar and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer with the whip attachment. Mix until everything is incorporated. Sift together the flour and baking powder and add into the bowl. Whip until there are no lumps. (do not overmix!) Incorporate the basil, chopped bacon and amish blue cheese. Scoop the muffin mix into well greased muffin tins and bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are measured and prepped. This will help speed up the muffin-making process.
  • Buttermilk Substitution: If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to a measuring cup and filling it up with milk to the 1-cup mark.
  • Muffin Pan Preparation: Grease or line the muffin pan with paper liners to prevent the muffins from sticking.
  • Muffin Batter Consistency: The batter should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If it's too thin, add more flour; if it's too thick, add more milk.
  • Filling Distribution: When adding the blue cheese and chopped pecans, divide them evenly among the muffin cups to ensure each muffin has a good balance of flavors.
  • Baking Time: Keep an eye on the muffins while they bake. Use a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin to check for doneness. If it comes out clean, the muffins are ready.
  • Muffin Cooling: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese muffins are a unique and flavorful treat that combines the tanginess of blue cheese with the sweetness of raisins and the crunch of pecans.
