Why Make This Recipe

Peanut Butter Muffins are a delicious treat that everyone will enjoy. They are soft, moist, and packed with the rich flavor of peanut butter. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert. Plus, they are simple to make with just a few ingredients that you probably already have at home.

How to Make Peanut Butter Muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup milk

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter and sugar until well combined.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix in the flour until just combined, then add the milk and stir until smooth.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
  7. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tin and serving.

How to Serve Peanut Butter Muffins

Peanut Butter Muffins taste great warm or at room temperature. You can enjoy them on their own or spread a little more peanut butter on top for an extra treat. They also pair well with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee.

How to Store Peanut Butter Muffins

To keep your Peanut Butter Muffins fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They will last for about 2 to 3 days. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them. Just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. They can last up to 2 months in the freezer.

Tips to Make Peanut Butter Muffins

  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smoother texture in your muffins. If you like a chunkier texture, go for crunchy peanut butter.
  • Don’t overmix the batter. Mix until the flour is just combined for the best texture.
  • Feel free to add chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.

Variation

You can easily turn these muffins into chocolate peanut butter muffins by adding cocoa powder to the batter. Just replace about 1/4 cup of flour with cocoa powder.

FAQs

1. Can I use natural peanut butter?
Yes, you can use natural peanut butter. Just make sure it is well-stirred so the oil is mixed in.

2. Can I make these muffins gluten-free?
Yes, you can substitute regular flour with gluten-free flour to make these muffins gluten-free.

3. How can I make these muffins less sweet?
You can reduce the amount of sugar by about 1/4 cup if you prefer a less sweet muffin.
