Macadamia Nut Muffins
Equipment
- 1 muffin tin
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter (1 stick)
- 1 ½ cups baker's sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ tbsp vanilla
- 1 heaping cup macadamia nuts, chopped, plus more for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep a muffin tin with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minutes. Add the sugar and beat until creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add eggs, one at a time, making sure the eggs are fully incorporated between each addition. Add the flour and heavy cream in 3 increments, alternating between the flour and the cream. Add vanilla, then add the macadamia nuts, and mix on low until just combined.
- Using a large cookie scoop, scoop batter into parchment-lined muffin tin. Sprinkle the tops of each muffin with chopped macadamia nuts.
- Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean.
