Guittard Irish Soda Bread Muffins

Guittard Irish Soda Bread Muffins

Inspired by Irish Soda Bread, we’re redesigning a tradition by adding chocolate chips to accompany the raisins and switching from the traditional caraway to anise seeds. These can also be made with all whole wheat flour.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour (unsifted)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (unsifted)
  • tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Anise Seed

  • ½ cup Raisins (golden or dark)
  • cup Buttermilk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly coat the inside of 12 muffin forms with non-stick spray or oil.
  • In a large bowl uniformly combine flours, baking powder, baking soda, anise seed, salt, sugar, ½ cup Guittard 63% Extra Dark Chocolate Baking Chips, and raisins.
  • Measure the buttermilk and lightly beat in the egg. Stir liquid into the dry mixture stopping when there are still some dry clumps, to keep the muffins tender.
  • Scoop the batter into prepared muffin cavities, evenly filling them almost to the top.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden brown and slightly risen. A toothpick inserted in the center will test clean. Remove from oven and cool on rack.
