Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 1/2 | cups flour |
| 3/4 | teaspoon baking powder |
| 4 | cups popped popcorn |
| 1 | teaspoon salt |
| 1 | cup sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon butter, melted |
| 2 | cups milk |
| 1 | egg |
Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prep:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line your muffin tins, ensuring each cavity is ready to cradle these scrumptious muffins.
-
-
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. This ensures a smooth and uniform texture for your muffin batter.
-
Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, combine the milk, popped popcorn, beaten egg, and melted butter. Stir them well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
-
Blend and Fold:
- Carefully pour the wet ingredients mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
-
Fill Muffin Tins:
- Using a spoon or scoop, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cavity about 3/4 full. This allows room for the muffins to rise beautifully while baking.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Place the filled muffin tins into the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tins for a few minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve them warm for a delightful treat.
Tips:
- 🌟 Experiment with different types of popcorn for unique flavor profiles. Whether it’s classic buttered popcorn or gourmet varieties like caramel or cheese, let your taste buds lead the way!
- 🥛 Adjust the amount of milk according to your preferred consistency. For a denser muffin, reduce the milk slightly; for a lighter texture, add a splash more.
- 🔥 Keep an eye on the muffins as they bake to prevent over-browning. Every oven is different, so adjust the baking time accordingly.
