Rum And Raisin Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in extract. Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, baking powder and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating just until combined. Toss raisins with remaining flour. Fold raisins and pecans into batter. , Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Immediately brush muffins with syrup. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Soak raisins and currants in rum to cover overnight, stirring occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Generously grease 2 1/2-inch muffin cups or line with paper baking cups.
• Drain fruit, reserving rum.
• Mix flour, sugar,baking powder, baking soda,salt and nutmeg in large bowl.
• Cut in butter until coarse meal forms; mix in fruit.
• Whisk sour cream,egg,vanilla and 2 tablespoons reserved rum in medium bowl until smooth.
• Make well in center of dry ingredients, add sour cream mixture to well and stir into dry ingredients until just blended (batter will be lumpy).
• Spoon batter into prepared cups, filling each 3/4 full.
• Bake until muffins are golden brown and tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
• Cool 5 minutes in pan.
• Meanwhile prepare glaze:.
• In small bowl, combine sugar, lemon juice and enough reserved rum (about 1 tablespoon) to make medium-thin glaze.
• Remove muffins from pan;spread glaze over top.
• Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• Find a mason jar or other glass container with a tight-fitting lid.
• Place the raisins in the jar.
• Pour the bourbon (I use Maker's Mark)over the raisins--enough to cover them.
• Give them a shake and close up the jar.
• Let it sit in your cupboard for a few days (although after just a few hours the raisins will begin to plump), inverting the jar occasionally to make sure all the raisins are getting coated.
• Voila!
• For bourbon or dark rum, I suggest dark raisins.
• For white rum, I suggest golden raisins.
