Sugar Free, Gluten Free Cherry Muffins
Posted by Unknown on 1:04 AM with No comments
I have a good friend who adores dessert. Dessert makes her inordinately happy. All dessert. Well almost all - cake type things that are a little dry, or even thinking about being dry, just don't cut it.
So, when I decided to make cherry muffins the other night, I could see the disappointment flash across her face (even though she tried hard to hide it). Just to be safe, I made her a side of whipped cream to slather on the muffins in case they were too dry for her.
As she ate her first bite of muffin, she had a huge smile on her face and said I should make sure to say (these are her exact words): "you know how with most muffins, only the top is really good and the rest is just kind of dry and boring? Well these muffins are delicious all the way through!"
I used frozen cherries for this recipe. I've found that using the fruit frozen works better in baked goods than thawing it first. For reasons that I can't explain, frozen fruit works perfectly and thawed fruit turns into a watery mess that dyes the dough strange colors. Fresh is, of course, great too, but then you're limited by the seasons. Given the time of year, cherry muffins would be out of the question at this moment. If you're lucky enough to have access to a Costco, that store is a bonanza of relatively inexpensive frozen organic berries and fruits. These muffins feature their incredible frozen organic cherries.
This recipe is extremely easy and requires only 1 bowl. Freezing these muffins is no problem. Let them come to room temperature, put them in a cookie tin or ziplock bag, and freeze away. To defrost, take one out and heat it up on 350 degrees until they are warm. Sometimes, the tops get a bit crisp when they are reheated, but this tastes especially delicious. According to my friend, you definitely do not need to be concerned with them being dry!
