Delicious Cherry Almond Muffins Recipe for All Occasions

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh cherries (pitted and chopped)
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sliced almonds (for topping)

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    Sifting the flour can help avoid lumps.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar

    In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

    Use room temperature butter for better incorporation.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

    Mix until just combined to avoid over-beating.
  5. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped cherries.

    Do not overmix to keep the muffins light.
  6. Fill Muffin Tins

    Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each about 2/3 full. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top if desired.

    Using an ice cream scoop makes this easier.
  7. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Check at the minimum time to avoid overbaking.
  8. Cool and Serve

    Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Serve warm for the best flavor.
