- Gingerbread Doughnut Muffins
- 2¾ cup all-purpose
- flour (or white whole wheat)
- 8 tbsp. unsalted
- butter, at room temperature
- ½ cup plus 2 tbsp.
- light brown sugar
- ½ cup unsulphured
- molasses (I used honey)
- 3-4 tbsp. unsalted
- butter, melted
Preheat the oven to
350˚ F / 180˚ C.
Line muffin pans with paper liners. In a medium bowl,
combine the flour, baking soda, salt and spices.Whisk to blend.
In
a mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Beat on medium-high speed
until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Blend in the eggs one at a time.
Mix in the molasses.
With the mixer on low
speed, stir in half of the dry ingredients just until incorporated. Add
in the second half, again mixing just until incorporated. Mix in the
water on medium-low speed, just until evenly mixed and no lumps remain.
Divide the batter
between the prepared muffin liners, filling each about two-thirds of the way
full. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until the tops are set and
a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18-20 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
To finish, combine
the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and whisk until evenly combined.
Dip the top of a muffin in the melted butter, then into the
cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat with a thin layer. Repeat with the
remaining muffins. Serve warm.
