Description

These Gingerbread Spice Muffins are full of flavor with a secret shortcut ingredient and a sweet crumb topping. Moist and delicious, they are sure to be a hit over the holidays.

Ingredients

  • ⅔ cups Water
  • 2 bags (single-serving Tea Bag) Celestial Seasonings Gingerbread Spice Tea
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅔ cups Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • ¼ cups Molasses
  • ⅓ cups Pure Maple Syrup
  • FOR THE CRUMB TOPPING:
  • ¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • ½ cups Oats
  • ¼ cups Light Brown Sugar
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Softened

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.

Put the water in a mug. Microwave on high for 1 ½ minutes. Add tea bags and set aside.

Whisk dry ingredients in a large bowl: flour, baking powder salt, and brown sugar.

Take the tea bags and squeeze well into the mug. This gets all the flavor out of them. In a bowl, whisk egg, vanilla, molasses, syrup and brewed tea.

Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients just until combined. Do not over-mix.

Pour batter into muffin cups until ¾ full. I used an ice cream scoop.

In a small bowl, mix all the crumb topping ingredients. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to mix. It should resemble a coarse crumb. Sprinkle generously on top of muffins.

Bake for 17–19 minutes or until tops are fully set. Do not overbake. You can also check with a toothpick.
