Blackberry Mojito Muffins
- FOR THE MUFFINS:
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Mint, Finely Chopped
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1 cup Sour Cream
- 1 teaspoon Milk
- 1 stick Butter, Melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1-1/2 cup Fresh Blackberries
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 1 cup Confectioners Sugar
- 1 whole Lime, Zested
- 1 whole Lime, Juiced (use The Same Lime As Zest)
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- Preheat your oven to 400u0b0F. Fill a muffin pan with paper liners and set aside.
- In a large bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix together the finely chopped mint (keep chopping until it is little flakes) and the sugar.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, sour cream, milk, butter, vanilla and mint+sugar mixture on medium speed.
- Slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, a third at a time. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl between each addition. You don't want to overmix the batter, so mix until the flour is just incorporated - the batter will be lumpy. That's okay.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the blackberries.
- Spoon the batter into the muffin liners, filling each to about 3/4 full.
- Bake for about 18-20 minutes, until golden brown and when poked a toothpick comes out clean. Let cook in the pan for 2 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- In a small bowl mix together the confectioners sugar, lime zest, lime juice, and milk. Let sit for 3-5 minutes to set. Place the cooled muffins on a wire rack set on a baking sheet to catch the extra glaze. Then using a spoon lightly drizzle the glaze over the muffins.
- Enjoy!
