Ingredients
- 1/2 cup salted butter melted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3.4 ounce package pistachio instant pudding mix
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- Melt 1/2 cup salted butter in a microwave-safe bowl on 50% power in 20-second increments until fully melted.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the melted butter and 3/4 cup granulated sugar until well combined, about 1 minute. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, then mix until just incorporated.
- Add in 3.4 ounce package pistachio instant pudding mix, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup milk. Mix to combine. Add in 2 cups all-purpose flourand mix until flour has been incorporated. The batter will be thick.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle the tops with 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
- Bake for 7 minutes at 425°F (220°C). Without opening the oven, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 10 more minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the muffin tin and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Want to add a nutty crunch? Once the batter is finished, fold in 1/2 cup finely chopped pistachios, salted or unsalted.
- This batter will be thick, which will create that perfect dense and moist bakery-style muffin.
- Use sugar crystals to sprinkle on top instead of granulated sugar to make them fancy.
- For Mini Muffins: Bake at a consistent 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes. For Jumbo Muffin Pans: Start at 425°F for the first 7 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for an additional 18-22 minutes.
