Instructions
Cappucino muffins
- Preheat your oven to 428°F (220°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, white sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and instant coffee.
- Whisk together by hand or with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Add the buttermilk and beat again to incorporate.
- Finish with the dry ingredients, adding the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, mixing gently to incorporate them until you have a thick batter.
- Stir in the chocolate chips or chocolate chunks, mixing them into the muffin batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling the paper liners completely.
- Top with a few more chocolate chunks or chips and bake the muffins for 5 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 374°F (190°C) and continue baking for another 10 to 15 minutes. (Check the doneness of the muffins by inserting a toothpick into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean, they are cooked through)
- Allow the cappuccino muffins to cool slightly before removing them from the muffin pan and letting them cool completely on a wire rack.
Coffee Sugar Glaze
- In a bowl, place the icing sugar and the instant coffee dissolved in a teaspoon of water, and mix with a fork until you have a smooth glaze. (Add a few more drops of water if it's too thick or more icing sugar if it's too thin).
- Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cappuccino muffins and enjoy.
Notes
Storage: Up to 1 week at room temperature in an airtight tin or under a cloche, up to 3 months in the freezer.
To substitute buttermilk in a recipe: you can mix regular milk with a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar and let it stand for a few minutes, or use equal parts of yogurt or sour cream mixed with milk to achieve the desired consistency and acidity.
