Description

Recreate the famous Jason’s Deli gingerbread muffins at home! These bite-sized treats are moist, spicy, and perfectly sweet—just like the ones from the salad bar.

Ingredients 

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons molasses
  • 3 tablespoons water, hot
  • 1 small egg

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously spray a 24-count mini-muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or line it with mini paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 small egg, and 3 tablespoons molasses until the mixture is dark and smooth. Once combined, slowly stir in the h3 tablespoons water.
  • Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Over-mixing will make the muffins tough, so stop as soon as the flour streaks disappear. Fill each mini-muffin cup about 3/4 full and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Equipment

  • Egg Mold, or muffin tin
  • Cooking Spray
