cappucino muffins

19 years ago

Can someone please give me the link to these? I remember drooling over the recipe but now I can't find it. I saw they were on the menu for the forum get-together, but I didn't see the recipe.

Thanks,

Jo

Not sure what recipe was used this weekend in MICHIGAN...
I love these ones.
Taste of Homes Cappuccino Muffins

And then there are Dorie Greenspans Muffins. I made these 2 weekends ago..Yummm

These morning muffins provide you with coffee to go with your coffee.

COFFEE-BREAK MUFFINS

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/3 cup sugar

1 tablespoon instant espresso powder

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar

1 cup strong (or decaf) coffee, cooled

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter or spray the 12 molds in a regular-sized muffin pan or fit the molds with paper muffin cups. Alternatively, use a silicone muffin pan, which needs neither greasing or paper cups. Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, espresso powder, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir in the brown sugar, making certain there are no lumps. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk the coffee, melted butter, egg and vanilla extract together until well combined. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and, with the whisk or a rubber spatula, gently but quickly stir to blend. Don't worry about being thorough -- a few lumps are better than overmixing the batter. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.

Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a thin knife inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing each muffin from its mold.

Makes 12 muffins.

Jo, this is the recipe I used, all of them look pretty similar, I think. Mine is from an old "Best Recipes" book by Better Homes and Gardens. I used some espresso powder from Melly and the mini chips in mine, but I left the nutmeg out.

They are Ashley's favorites, I made them mini-muffins and she grabs a handful from the freezer and goes to school.

Linda, maybe a drop scone would be easy, no cupcake tin needed. Cinnamon Bun Scones 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup Quaker® Oats (Quick or Old Fashioned, uncooked) 1/2 CUP granulated sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 8 tablespoons butter or margarine, chilled and cut into pieces 3/4 cup whole or 2% milk 1 egg, lightly beaten 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup toasted, chopped pecans 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon GLAZE 3/4 cup powdered sugar 3 teaspoons orange juice or milk, or as needed Recipe DIRECTIONS: Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray. In large bowl, combine flour, oats, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, baking powder and salt; mix well. Cut in butter with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In small bowl, combine milk, egg and vanilla; blend well. Add to dry ingredients all at once; stir with fork or rubber spatula until dry ingredients are moistened. In small bowl, combine remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar with the pecans and cinnamon; mix well. Sprinkle evenly over dough in bowl; gently stir batter to swirl in cinnamon mixture (Do not blend completely.) Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Bake 11 to 13 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire rack; cool 5 minutes. In small bowl, combine powdered sugar and enough orange juice for desired consistency; mix until smooth. Drizzle over top of warm scones. Serve warm. Here's a couple of other ideas... Bonus Muffins 4 bananas, very ripe 1 C. canned pumpkin 3 large eggs 1 C. superfine sugar 1/2 C. brown sugar 2 tsp pure vanilla 1 C. oil 2 1/2 C. unbleached flour 2 C. old fashioned oatmeal 1 T. baking soda 2 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. allspice 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice 1/4 tsp. sea salt 1 1/2 C. nuts, chopped 1 C. raisins topping Puree bananas and place into a large mixing bowl. Add pumpkin, eggs, sugars and vanilla. Mix well and add oil. Add remaining dry ingredients, mixing until evenly blended. Stir in nuts and raisins. Grease muffin tins and dill 1/2 full with batter. Sprinkle with topping and bake at 350 degrees F. for about 30 minutes or until done. Remove to cool on wire racks. TOPPING\- 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice and 2 tablespoons butter. Mix well until very crumbly. MAPLE-OATMEAL SCONES 2 cups all purpose flour 1/4 cup sugar 2 tsp cream of tartar 3/4 tsp baking soda ½ cup butter ½ cup quick-cooking rolled oats ½ cup B&R Farms Dried Apricots 2 eggs 2 tbsp maple syrup 1 tbsp milk 1 tsp maple syrup 1 tsp milk In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, cream of tartar, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in rolled oats and B&R Farms dried apricots. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture. In a small mixing bowl, combine eggs, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon milk. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Form dough into a ball (dough may be sticky.) Transfer dough to a cookie sheet. Roll or pat with lightly floured hands into a circle, 3/4 inch thick and about 7 inches in diameter. Cut into 6 to 8 wedges (do not separate wedges). Brush scones with mixture of 1 teaspoon maple syrup and 1 teaspoon milk. Bake in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes or until golden. Serve warm, with additional maple syrup, if desired. Makes 6 to 8 scones. I also have a recipe for Carrot Bread that I've made for years and when we had the deli I made big batched of. I don't have it typed out but would be glad to, if it's of interest. It has pineapple in it. Nancy

Ruthanna and Plllog...love the look of all your fresh veggies and salads. We've had some warm weather here and it brings on the urge to make some of the same. Lou lovely deer pics. I like the comfort food you prepare, especially that Wedding Soup. Jimster I can imagine your soup tasted good. You asked for tips about photographing soup. I guess I would have more or a stronger light, with a white cardboard reflector on the side closest to the camera, to lighten up the near side. Maybe fill the bowl a little more so the contents aren't so low down and are up closer to the light. Another trick you could try, to keep the solid bits of the soup visible, is to put a small upturned bowl...or even a piece of a hard bread roll...inside the soup bowl, fill up the bowl with liquid to cover the 'platform' and then pile the solid bits on the bread or whatever you used, so the bits are visible over the level of the liquid. Keep green bits as fresh looking as possible. Arrange them so they don't look sad and droopy. Of course that's only when you are wanting to make a showcase photo of the soup, as for a blog or a recipe illustration, not when you're making a quick snapshot of your lunch. Be careful when photographing soup or other liquids not to get too much light reflecting over the surface so it looks like a sheet of white. Move closer and up a little with the camera, or move to another angle, so you are partially looking down into the depth of the bowl and can see the colour and the contents with only a small amount of reflection. Well our meals are in deli mode at the moment as I'm still taking daily road tests for my Spanish driver's licence, and preparing our house for my sister's first visit to our house next month. So until mid July I will be making much use of our local deli, frozen fish, quick salads and lunches out. The other day we had a simple chicken ragout over rice at the tennis club where I go for Pilates. Really inexpensive and fast. They also have the best coffee there, so we never miss out on a cafe cortado afterward. SharonCb

Keurig Coffee Makers
Q
Comments (22)
Glenda posted that a friend had given her one...remember. My husband and I participated in testing the home version when they were still in the making. We used it for a long time but I have several coffee makers and I think the keurig is overpriced and the kcups too expensive. My favorite pot is a 4 cup Mr.Coffee ...I use it almost every morning...it makes probably the best coffee of any maker I have ever had including my most expensive coffee maker and my expresso machine. I know this little 4 cup machine is just a lucky happening as they all probably don't make wonderful coffee...but I won't gripe and I've had it forever. I don't drink enough coffee any more to worry about the cost but I refuse to pay the price for kcups and the keurig coffee maker just because of the principal of it...I think it's a rip off.

Prep Zone Storage
Q

. Best way to store our knives? Currently they sit on a shelf in a wall cabinet. Not my favorite arrangement. The ideas that have come to mind so far in a drawer with an insert meant to store knives, a knife block on the counter (I really dont like things sitting out), or a magnetic strip on the wall between the base and wall cabinets (is this another they will get ucky issue?). Suggestions? I started out with my Wusthof knives in the block on the counter. A few months ago, I put them in a knife tray in the wide drawer in my prep area. I have about 4' between my range and prep sink. One small drawer next to the range holds potholders and such. Then the wide drawer holds potato peeler, micro-plane, knives, can opener and herb snips. There are also a few synthetic cutting boards for meats. I use a large Boos block on the counter for veggie prep. 2, A thin base cabinet to store cutting board(s) What else might store in here? (I am hoping to have room for another cabinet for cookie sheets & muffin tins.) Mine is located beneath the potholder drawer. It holds all those things -- cookie sheets, cooling racks, jelly roll pan. Underneath my wide prep tool drawer, I have a double base cabinet that holds my roasting pans, cake pans, muffin tins, etc. Appliances. My list coffee maker, toaster, coffee bean grinder, juicer (not used for 3+ years but hubby not ready to part with), small electric chopper, hand mixer, electric knife, electric fry pan, blender, food processor, crock pot, George Foreman type grill (another not used.) (I am ignoring my full mixer until I get to the baking center.) Perhaps a corner lazy susan. Perhaps bumping the counters out to 30" and putting an appliance garage in back for the most used ones such as coffee maker. A couple of the items such as the hand mixer and electric knife might belong in a drawer. 4. Wall cupboard to house mugs, travel mugs, creamer, sweetener, tea, hot chocolate. 5. Cupboard or drawer for bowls, strainers, etc for cooking, 6. Drawer for small utensil type items such as vegetable peeler, garlic press, etc. 7. Where do you store your onions and potatoes? I am SO looking forward to getting them out of the laundry room. Two deep drawers? If the drawer is big enough can the potatoes and onions coexist in the same drawer, perhaps with a divider? We have a super susan in our corner (just on the other side of the prep sink) that holds my mixer, mixing bowls, colanders, food processors (large and small), blender, etc. I have room to spare. Just to the right of it, I have pull-outs for my veggies. In the corner of the counter, we have our coffee machine. In the upper cabinets, we have the coffee goods and some espresso and cappucino cups and travel mugs. Everyday mugs and cups are stored over by the clean up sink in a hutch will the other everyday dishes. BTW, we have a trash can under our prep sink as well as the big pull-out separate cabinet over by the clean-up sink. Our spices are in a corner lazy susan in the top cabinet. The window over our prep sink is a pass-through to our screened porch. On the screened porch there is a potting bench repurposed as a sideboard. The top shelf is aligned with the bottom of the window so I can place things on that shelf from the prep area. Side note: We're currently repainting the wall color -- didn't like it. Putting up window treatments, etc. Hope this helps. Cameron
