Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh lychees for the best flavor. You can find them in the produce section of most grocery stores.
  • If you can't find fresh lychees, you can use canned lychees. Just be sure to drain them well before using them.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will help prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These lychee muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. The lychees add a unique flavor and sweetness that makes these muffins irresistible. So next time you're looking for a new muffin recipe to try, give these lychee muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
