Claire Saffitz Makes Breakfast Muffins | Dessert Person

Claire Saffitz Makes Breakfast Muffins | Dessert Person Time for some real talk about muffins -- they’re cake without frosting, filled with sugar and deserving of no place on a breakfast table. That is, until now. Claire Saffitz engineered this seedy maple breakfast muffin to actually taste good while also providing some nutrition (in the form of seeds, whole wheat, and blueberries). It’s finally a blueberry muffin you can feel good eating -- and did we mention it’s vegan? #ClaireSaffitz​​​​​​ #DessertPerson​​​​​​ #Muffins Special Equipment: 12-cup muffin tin, muffin liners Ingredients: 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons hulled pumpkin seeds (2.3 oz / 65g) 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon hulled sunflower seeds (1.6 oz / 45g) 2 tablespoons flax meal (0.46 oz / 13g) 1 tablespoon demerara sugar 1 teaspoon white or black chia seeds 1 teaspoon poppy seeds 1 cup all-purpose flour (4.6 oz /130g) 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (2.5 oz / 70g) 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder (0.32 oz / 9g) 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 3/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt 1 cup unsweetened applesauce (8.6 oz / 243g) 1/2 cup virgin or refined coconut oil (4 oz / 113g), warmed gently to liquefy 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar (2.3 oz / 65g) 1/4 cup maple syrup (2.8 oz / 80g) 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 cup frozen blueberries (5 oz / 140g) Video Breakdown: 0:00​​​​​​ Start 0:06 Intro to Seedy Maple Breakfast Muffins 0:29​​​ Dessert Person Intro Animation 0:48 Claire's Beef with Muffins 2:00 Ingredients & Special Equipment 3:09 Toast The Seeds 5:25 Make The Batter 9:15 Claire says "Applesauce" 10:30 Combine Wet into Dry Ingredients 11:43 Prepare The Muffin Tin 13:25 Bake 14:23 Outro To Breakfast Muffins + Tasting 16:07 Check-In on Penelope & Moose Find Dessert Person Online: https://www.dessertperson.com​​​​​​ Claire Saffitz on Instagram:   / ​​​​​​   Dessert Person Merchandise: https://www.dessertperson.com/buystuf...
