Best 2 Mincemeat Muffins Recipes

HOLIDAY MINCEMEAT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and white sugar, mixing until thoroughly blended.
• In another bowl, whisk together the egg, 1 cup of apple cider, and vegetable oil. Stir in the apple and mincemeat. Pour the mincemeat mixture into the flour mixture, and stir until just combined.
• Fill the lined muffin cups 3/4 full, and bake in the preheated oven until the muffins are risen and browned, and a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes.
• Make a glaze by stirring together the confectioners' sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, and about 1 tablespoon of apple cider, or a little more as needed to make the glaze workable. Spread the glaze on the warm muffins.

MINCEMEAT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F and grease twelve 1/2-cup muffin cups.
• Finely chop pecans. Peel apple and cut into 1/4-inch dice. In a bowl whisk together egg, juice, and oil and stir in mincemeat and apple. Into a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and cinnamon and whisk in sugar. Add mincemeat mixture and pecans and stir batter until just combined. Divide batter among muffin cups and bake in middle of oven 20 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Turn muffins out onto a rack and cool 5 minutes.
• While muffins are cooling, make glaze:
• In a small bowl whisk together confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and 3 teaspoons juice until smooth, adding enough of remaining teaspoon if necessary to make a spreadable glaze.
• Spread glaze over tops of warm muffins. Serve muffins warm or at room temperature. Muffins may be made 3 days ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
