Chai Spiced Glazed Doughnut Muffins
Also when I saw the contents of my December Degustabox I knew that the recipe would be the perfect fit for a product I wanted to showcase from the box. So more about the muffins in a little bit. Right now I want to tell you about the box.
I love getting these boxes. Its a little bit like Christmas for me when the box arrives every month. Here is a little bit about the December box I received.
I was going to do a sauce with it but then this muffin recipe jumped out a me and this is what you are going to get!
Makes one dozen
Sweet and spicy. Lovely and moist with a delicate chai flavour. Teatime treats!
For the Muffins:
60g butter, softened (1/4 cup)
60ml vegetable oil (1/4 cup)
95g granulated sugar (1/2 cup)
70g soft light brown sugar (1/3 cup)
2 large free range eggs
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp finely ground black pepper
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
300g plain flour (2 2/3 cups)
225ml milk (1 cup)
For the glaze:
3 TBS butter, melted
130g sifted icing sugar (1 cup)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp ground cardamom
1/8 tsp ground allspice
3/4 tsp vanilla
1 TBS milk
Cream together the butter, oil and both sugars until well mixed. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Sift together the baking powder, soda, cinnamon, ginger, cardamo, allspice, black pepper, and salt. Add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Fill the muffin cups, filling them 2/3 full.
Bake for 17 to 18 minutes until well risen and golden brown. A toothpick inserted in th centre should come out clean. Leave to cool for at least five minutes before glazing.
To make the glaze whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Dip the tops of the warm muffins in this mixture twice to coat.
