Sugared Ginger Muffins Recipe

Sugared Ginger Muffins Recipe

  • 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons chopped crystallized ginger
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional)
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, stir together the buttermilk, butter, egg, granulated sugar, and ginger until well-blended. Stir in the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Evenly sprinkle the batter with the coarse sugar (if using). Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool on a rack for 5 minutes. Remove to the rack to cool completely.
