Delightful Croissant Muffins that combine the flakiness of a croissant with the convenience of a muffin, perfect for breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, blend the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Allow to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

For a twist, substitute almond milk for dairy milk or use coconut sugar in place of regular sugar. To store leftovers, keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or freeze for up to three months.
