Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Instant coffee granules
- 2 tablespoons Boiling water
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Optional: Coffee glaze (powdered sugar, brewed coffee)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in the boiling water. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and the prepared coffee mixture until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, mix powdered sugar with a small amount of brewed coffee to create a glaze and drizzle it over the muffins before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature with a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy!
