Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus extra for greasing the pan
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
7 ounces Greek yogurt

2 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups wheat bran
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (8 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush the top of a muffin pan with vegetable oil and line it with 12 paper liners.
  • Stir together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, honey, eggs, and vanilla until combined. Add the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Gently stir in the wheat bran and blueberries until combined.

BERRY MUFFINS

This is a recipe from The Muffin Lady cookbook, that I changed a little bit. It makes a delicious, bakery style muffin. I use a frozen berry mix, and the combination is heavenly.

Time 40m

Yield 6-12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup oil
4 tablespoons melted butter
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces berries, fresh or frozen

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Sift the dry ingredients together.
  • Mix in the eggs, oil, butter, milk and vanilla.
  • Fold in your choice of berries.
  • (I get a blend of frozen berries at my grocery store--raspberries, blackberries, strawberries and blueberries. These make a great mixed berry muffin,and they're much more economical than fresh. But use what you have) Pour into lightly greased, standard 12 muffin pan, or large 6 muffin pan.
  • (Tip-an ice cream scoop makes easy work of this task, and muffins are the same size.) Bake for 30-40 minutes, start checking at 30 minutes or so.
  • Cool in pan on rack for about 5 minutes, then turn on out on rack to cool.

THE RITZ-CARLTON'S BLUEBERRY MUFFINS



The Ritz-Carlton's Blueberry Muffins image

This recipe came to The Times by way of Marian Burros in a 1985 article about the famous muffins served at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Boston. The hotel has been serving blueberry muffins since it opened in 1927, but in 1971, then pastry chef Charles Bonino set out to develop a better recipe. One of the city's best-known department stores, Gilchrist's - long since closed - was renowned for its version, so Mr. Bonino bought dozens of the muffins over the years and would analyze and and try to replicate them. He was never totally happy with the results, even if the guests were. Gunther Moesinger, the pastry chef who succeeded Mr. Bonino in 1982, again made more changes, swapping out shortening for butter, increasing the eggs and blueberries and reducing the baking powder. This recipe is an adaptation of Mr. Moesinger's recipe which results in a plump, crusty-topped muffin. They're best eaten the day they are made. (After this article ran, a reader wrote in to argue that the department store Jordan Marsh's blueberry muffins were the best in Boston, not these. That recipe is here, so you can decide for yourself.)

JORDAN MARSH'S BLUEBERRY MUFFINS



Jordan Marsh's Blueberry Muffins image

This recipe came to The Times in a 1987 article by Marian Burros, "The Battle of the Blueberry Muffins." Two years prior, Ms. Burros wrote about a recipe for the muffins attributed to the Ritz-Carlton in Boston. The hotel had adapted a recipe used by Gilchrist's, once one of city's best-known department stores. After it ran, a reader wrote in to say that the best blueberry muffins in Boston were not from the Ritz-Carlton, but from the now-closed Jordan Marsh department store. She sent along the recipe, with a description of how she picks wild blueberries: standing in a pond in the August heat and plucking berries from bushes along the bank. This version has a lot more sugar and butter and fewer eggs than the Ritz-Carlton muffins. The recipe also calls for mashing a half cup of berries and adding them to the batter. This produces a very moist muffin, one that will stay fresh longer.

DOUBLE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Blueberries are mashed for the batter to create a beautiful purple interior and also added whole so that every bite is juicy and sweet. Yellow cornmeal adds a subtle crunch, and a sprinkling of sugar before baking gives the muffins an alluring sheen.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 1h15m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups fresh blueberries, rinsed and dried
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest, (from 1 lemon)
1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1 cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a standard (12-cup) muffin tin (or two 6-cup tins) with paper cups. With an electric mixer, cream butter and 3/4 cup sugar on medium-high speed until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time; beat until combined.
  • In a shallow bowl, mash 1/2 cup blueberries with a fork until liquefied. Add to butter mixture, along with lemon zest; beat to incorporate (mixture will appear separated).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture in alternating batches, beginning and ending with the flour. Gently fold in remaining 1 1/2 cups blueberries.
  • Spoon or scoop batter into cups, and sprinkle tops with remaining tablespoon sugar. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in pan 20 minutes, then turn out muffins onto a wire rack to cool 10 minutes more before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe berries. This will ensure that your muffins are bursting with flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan.

Conclusion:

These Bumbleberry Muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. Try them with different berries or add in some nuts or chocolate chips. You won't be disappointed!
