Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
Supporting Ingredients:
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup refined coconut oil, melted and cooled
- 1/4 cup milk (almond or dairy)
Flavoring and Leavening Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons (tsp) almond extract
- 3/4 teaspoon (tsp) baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) salt
- 1/4 cup sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by warming it to 350°F, creating an ideal baking atmosphere.
- Thoroughly coat a mini muffin tin with coconut oil spray, ensuring each cavity is evenly lubricated to prevent sticking.
- Create a dry ingredient foundation by whisking flour, baking soda, and salt together in a spacious mixing bowl until uniformly blended.
- In a separate vessel, transform eggs into a smooth mixture, then introduce sugar, liquefied coconut oil, creamy Greek yogurt, milk, and aromatic almond extract. Blend until ingredients harmonize seamlessly.
- Merge wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just incorporated, avoiding overmixing which could compromise the muffins’ delicate texture.
- Carefully disperse colorful sprinkles throughout the batter, distributing them evenly with a light folding motion.
- Utilize a small cookie scoop to precisely distribute batter into 45 miniature muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full for optimal rising.
- Transfer the muffin tin to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes, monitoring until a toothpick emerges clean and the tops acquire a golden-brown hue.
- Allow the mini muffins to rest and cool slightly, letting them settle before serving to enhance their structural integrity and flavor profile.
Notes
- Customize sprinkles for themed parties by choosing colors matching your event’s color scheme or holiday.
- Swap almond extract with vanilla for a classic flavor if preferred or avoiding nut allergies.
- Use silicone mini muffin pans for easier removal and less potential sticking compared to metal tins.
- Create gluten-free version by substituting all-purpose flour with a reliable 1:1 gluten-free baking flour blend for sensitive diets.
