Lychee Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
• Mix cake flour and baking powder together in a large bowl.
• Strain lychees into a bowl, reserving canning liquid. Pat lychees dry with a paper towel; cut into small pieces. Add 3/4 of the pieces to the flour mixture; toss lightly.
• Whisk sugar and egg together in a bowl until sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Stir in 5 tablespoons of the reserved canning liquid, butter, and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture; stir batter until just moistened.
• Spoon batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner 3/4 full. Scatter remaining lychee pieces on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl except for the shredded coconut.
• Mix all wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
• Add mixed wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mix until just moistened.
• Fill muffin tins, and sprinkle with shredded coconut.
• Bake for 20 - 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Muddle 8 mint leaves with 2 teaspoons sugar in a cocktail shaker. Add 4 canned lychees, 1/4 cup syrup from the can, 3 ounces vodka and a squeeze of lime juice; shake with ice. Strain into 2 ice-filled glasses; top with seltzer. Repeat to make more drinks. Garnish with mint and lime.

Steps:

• In a cocktail shaker filled with ice add vodka, lychee juice and vermouth. Shake until chilled. Pour into 2 martini glasses and garnish with lychees.

Steps:

• Pour can of lychee fruit into a strainer. Reserve 2 tablespoons lychee juice.
• In a shaker, add crushed ice, lychee liqueur, vodka, lime juice and reserved lychee juice.
• Shake well. Pour mixture into chilled martini glasses over a few pieces of lychee fruit from can. Add a splash of Champagne and serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl sift together the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, the salt, and the baking soda and stir in the oats and the prunes. In another bowl whisk together the buttermilk, the butter, the molasses, and the egg, add the mixture to the flour mixture, and stir the batter until it is just combined. Divide the batter among 12 well-buttered 1/3-cup muffin tins and bake the muffins in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are golden and springy to the touch. Turn the muffins out onto a rack and let them cool.

Steps:

• My helpful hint! I like to prepare the prunes before I start baking, sometimes even the night before I chop the prunes, sprinkle with two tablespoons of water, stir and let sit until needed. I find it makes them much more moist, if there is any liquid left in the dish after I spoon the prunes into the flour mixture I add it to the bowl of liquids.
• In a large bowl, combine prunes, flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and sugar.
• In a bowl blend together beaten egg, sour cream and melted butter.
• Add to dry ingredients and stir just until well blended, but do not overmix.
• Batter will be firm like a stiff drop cookie dough.
• Fill 12 greased medium-size muffin tins about 3/4 full; you will need to use a spoon and knife to do this as the dough is very thick.
• Bake 15 - 20 minutes in 375 degree oven, or until golden brown.
• Let sit in pans for a couple of minutes before turning out, they will be easier to handle when dipping in the topping.
• While hot, dip muffin tops into the 1/4 cup melted butter, then sugar and cinnamon mixture.
• Note: I use about 1/3 cup of sugar and find that is sufficient, or you can double dip and have a nice crunchy topping.
• Delicious!
