Soaked Cherry Muffins

Recipe Description:

These are moist and light soaked muffins that only take a few minutes of work in the morning to get on the table. They are delicious warm out of the oven slathered in butter. The recipe is easily doubled if you have a larger family.

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Cook Time: 20 Minutes

Servings: 6 muffins

Difficulty: Moderate

Recipe Ingredients:

3/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour

1/3 cup Oats

1/2- 3/4 cup Buttermilk

1 Egg or 1 T Flax Meal and 3 T Water

1/4 cup Sucant or Rapadura

1/4 c Butter Melted (but not too hot so you don't scramble the egg)

1/4 cup of Dried Cherries

1/2 t Baking Soda

1 t Baking Powder

Nuts if wanted

Recipe Instructions:

The night before you want muffins mix together your Whole Wheat Flour, Oats, and Buttermilk. Add a few nuts if you would like, I added a handful of walnuts. Almonds would be nice too. Mix this all together, you want enough buttermilk to make a sticky dough but not too wet. It should stick to your spoon but not run off it. Hope that helps I can't quite think of what it's like. Remember you will be adding another 1/2 cup of liquid in the morning.

In the morning mix together in another bowl your egg, sugar, and melted butter.

On top of the soaked mixture sprinkle on your Dried Cherries, Baking Soda, and Baking Powder.

Pour the wet on top of the cherries and stir to combine making sure to get out all the lumps. Do this quickly and then scoop the batter into your greased tins filling them about 2/3 full.

Bake for 20-25 min at 375 degrees. Poke the middle with a tooth pick if it comes out clean they are done. Move to a cooling rack and let cool for a minute or two before removing them carefully from the tins. If you greased them well enough you should be able to lightly put a cooling rack on top of them and then just flip the whole thing over (gently) and they should slide right out.

Now just slice open, slather with butter, and enjoy.
