Tasty Tuesday

 Mom was on FB last week and saw a couple of peeps posting about gingerbread and it sounded so yummy to her that she wondered if she could it in muffin form.    You can find just about anything on the intermutts, right?!

Gingerbread Muffins~~

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon ground ginger
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/3 cup molasses
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons hot water
•  
•  
  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F.    Grease muffin tin or use paper liners.
    

  • Step 2

    Make Muffins: In a bowl, whisk together flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. In a separate large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, molasses, vegetable oil, egg, and hot water until smooth. Add liquid mixture to dry mixture and whisk until no dry pockets of flour remain. Divide batter among 10 of the lined muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake until the center of the muffins springs back to the touch and a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 15 minutes. 

    Our muffin pan is the large size and the recipe made 5 large muffins.   We did add a few more tablespoons of hot water than the recipe called for and we did need to bake them for 20-25 minutes.  

    

    We will be making this recipe again.   The muffins are delicious!

    

    Mom has been missing the cheerful lights so much that she decided to do something about it~

    The lights make her happy and that's always a good thing☺
    

    

    Happy Tuesday, everybuddy.
