Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted, 85 grams
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 250 grams
  • ½ cup granulated sugar 100 grams
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup buttermilk 240 milliliters
  • 2 egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • cup Rainbow sprinkles jimmie type or homemade, 64 grams
  • ¼ cup rainbow nonpareils 48 grams

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter, heat the oven to 350°F (175°C), and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 2 cups of flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and jimmie-type sprinkles.
  3. In a medium bowl or large glass measuring cup, combine the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients and the melted butter into the dry ingredients and stir just until all visible flour has been stirred in. Do not over-mix.
  5. Use a large cookie scoop or spoon to divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  6. Give the muffin pan a quick thwack on the countertop to spread out the batter, then sprinkle a teaspoon of nonpareils over the top of each one. You can give the pan a bit of a gentle shake to get any loose ones to adhere to the batter.
  7. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with no more than a few crumbs.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Rainbow sprinkles, especially nonpareils, tend to bleed their color. To minimize this, keep the wet and dry ingredients separate until you're ready to bake the muffin mixture.
  • I keep the warm melted butter separate from the rest of the wet ingredients just to prevent any chance of cooking the eggs.
  • As with all things made with the "muffin method," please avoid over-mixing the batter.
  • These rainbow sprinkle muffins are best on the same day they are made so the nonpareils on top stay crunchy. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two.
