A short Muffin History

This popular snack, while enjoyed all over the world, originates from Europe. “Muffin” came from the French “Moufflet” which means ‘ a soft bread ’. Though it started as a ‘bread’ to some, once English immigrants arrived in the United States during the 19th century these slowly started to turn into sweeter, cake-like, dense ‘bread’ that we now know as ‘muffins’. Eaten as a breakfast food, enjoyed as a snack with a cup of tea or coffee on the side, or simply eaten as a side dish. These have an array of flavors, from salt and savory versions that are often served to accompany dishes like salads, soups, or stews. These savory muffins are filled with herbs, cheeses, vegetables, and even meat. To the sweeter popular streusel muffins, cinnamon flavored, lemmon, chocolate, fruit filled, or chocolate and nut filled. You’re sure to find a version that suits you.

How to make this Chocolate Muffin Overload Recipe ?

To make this recipe; first start with mixing all the dry ingredients together. The all purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda to help the muffins rise, salt to really help bring out the flavors, and sugar for that iconic sweetness. Then make a well in the middle and add in an egg to help bind everything together, buttermilk, yogurt, and oil which really helps with the moisture and denseness, with some vanilla for that nice hit of aromatic flavor. Mix well. It would be best to use a spatula to avoid overmixing the batter. Once you don’t find any more dry streaks, add in some chocolate and fold once again. Scoop some of the batter into a muffin pan lined with muffin liners. Place just enough, avoid overfilling as these will still need the space to ‘puff up’ once baked. Top with more chocolate chunks then bake at high heat to create that nice shiny top. Then lower the temperature to help bake the muffins fully. Enjoy your afternoons better with this delightful chocolate-y treat.
