FRESH GINGER MUFFINS

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield About 16 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 9

A 2-ounce piece unpeeled ginger root
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lemon zest with some pith
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, room temperature
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Grease 16 muffin pans.
  • If you have a food processor, process the ginger until it is in tiny pieces. Or, hand chop it into fine pieces. You should have about 1/4 cup. It is better too much ginger than too little.
  • Put the ginger and 1/4 cup of the sugar in a small skillet and cook over medium heat until the sugar has melted and the mixture is hot. Do not walk away from the pan - the sugar will melt quite quickly. Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool completely.
  • Put the lemon zest and 3 tablespoons sugar in the food processor and process until the peel is in small bits. Or, sprinkle the sugar over the zest and chop by hand. Add the zest and sugar mix to the ginger mixture and set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the butter slightly, then add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat until smooth. Add the eggs and beat well. Add the buttermilk and mix until blended. Add the flour, salt and baking soda and beat until smooth. Add the lemon-ginger mixture and mix well.
  • Spoon the batter into the muffin cups so that each cup is about 3/4 full. Bake 15-20 minutes. Serve warm.

TRIPLE-GINGER MUFFINS



Triple-Ginger Muffins image

A baked good for the true ginger fanatic, these muffins pack some serious spice thanks to the addition of grated fresh ginger, ground ginger and minced crystallized ginger. Molasses, a key ingredient in traditional gingerbread, gives the muffins a beautiful golden hue and helps keep them moist for days - if they last that long. (Any variety of molasses will work here, but there may be some color variation depending on the brand used.) For larger, bakery-style muffins, use a jumbo muffin pan and bake the muffins for a few extra minutes.

Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup/201 grams granulated sugar
1/2 cup/113 grams unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup molasses
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
2 cups/256 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
3/4 cup/108 grams, plus 3 tablespoons/27 grams minced crystallized ginger

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, butter, eggs, milk, molasses and grated ginger, and whisk until smooth.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground ginger and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. (Be careful not to overmix! The batter will be slightly lumpy.) Stir in 3/4 cup crystallized ginger, reserving the remaining 3 tablespoons for the topping.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or a large spoon, divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle the reserved crystallized ginger onto the tops of the muffins, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the muffins spring back when lightly pressed.
