Best 5 Brown Butter Pineapple Corn Muffins Recipes

BROWN BUTTER PINEAPPLE CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a muffin pan with paper muffin liners, and lightly spray liners with cooking spray.
• Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until golden brown. Remove from heat and stir in pineapple. Set aside to steep for 20 minutes.
• Whisk flour, cornmeal, baking soda, and salt until combined. Set aside.
• Combine buttermilk, eggs, and pineapple mixture in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture to buttermilk mixture; whisk until just combined.
• Divide batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups and bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

DELICIOUS PINEAPPLE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour muffin pans, or line with paper liners.
• In a large bowl, stir together 2 cups flour, white sugar, baking powder and salt. Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour in the reserved juice, egg, milk, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Mix just until blended.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the cinnamon, brown sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and 1/4 cup melted butter to make the topping.
• Spoon batter into muffin cups, then spoon crushed pineapple over the batter and sprinkle with the cinnamon topping.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the crown of the muffin comes out clean.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CORNBREAD MUFFINS

Steps:

• For the pineapple: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.
• Combine the brown sugar, butter, allspice, kosher salt and cinnamon in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook until bubbling. Add the pineapple, stir to coat and cook until the liquid has nearly evaporated and the caramel has deepened in color, about 7 minutes.
• For the muffins: Meanwhile, working quickly, whisk the boiling water into the cornmeal in a large bowl until you get a stiff mash. Whisk in the buttermilk, stirring until smooth. Stir in the egg, then add the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, kosher salt and baking soda and mix until just incorporated.
• Add 2 to 3 pieces of the pineapple to the bottom of each muffin cup. Evenly divide the cornbread mixture among the muffin cups, filling each three-quarters of the way full.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Use a paring knife to remove each muffin, flipping it to reveal the caramelized pineapple before placing on a plate. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve!

RICH AND BUTTERY CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees, and generously butter the cups and tops of a muffin tin. (The muffins will overflow, and those crisp edges are delicious.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, sour cream, milk and eggs. Fold butter mixture into dry ingredients, then scoop batter into muffin tin (it will be very full). Sprinkle each muffin top with Demerara sugar.
• Bake until golden on the edges, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from muffin tin and cool to room temperature. Serve with even more butter.

BROWN BUTTER CORNBREAD MUFFINS WITH SWEET TEA GLAZE

Steps:

• Make The Brown Butter Cornbread Muffins:
• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut 6 tablespoons of butter into 12 (½ tablespoon) pats. Place 1 pat of butter in each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Cut the remaining 1 ½ sticks of butter into chunks and melt in a medium, light-colored saucepan over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter, swirling the pan, until it turns golden brown and smells nutty, 5 to 7 minutes-the butter will foam while it's browning. Remove from the heat, add the corn, and stir to coat the kernels in butter. Let cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, honey, and eggs. Add the warm (not hot) corn mixture and whisk to incorporate. Add the flour mixture and gently fold until just combined.
• Place the muffin pan in the oven and heat until the butter is melted, foaming, and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven. Spoon about 1/3 cup of batter into each muffin cup-they will be very full. Return the pan to the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes in the pan then transfer the muffins to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet.
• Make The Sweet Tea Glaze:
• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the tea and honey and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Add the butter and whisk until melted. Carefully measure 2 tablespoons of the hot glaze, combine with the cornstarch, and whisk to dissolve. Whisk the cornstarch mixture back into the glaze, add the salt, and continue to simmer, whisking frequently, until thick and slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour the glaze over the muffins and enjoy warm or at room temperature-before they're all gone!
