- 1 cup golden caster sugar 200g
- ½ cup butter softened at room temperature (115g/1 stick)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream 260g
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- zest of half a lemon
- 1 pinch of salt
Topping
- 1-2 tbsp white chocolate chips plus extra melted white chocolate for drizzling if desired.
- 1-2 tbsp roughly chopped pistachios
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F/180C and line a muffin pan with 12 muffin cases.
- Put the pistachios in a food processor and blitz to a fine crumb.
- Tip out into a large bowl and mix with the flour and sugar until thoroughly mixed.
- Add all ingredients (except topping ingredients) into the food processor and blitz for a few seconds until thoroughly combined (it only takes a few seconds so don't over mix).
- Spoon the mixture into muffins cases and top with white chocolate chips and roughly chopped pistachios.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before removing them to a cooling rack to cool completely
- If desired, drizzle with extra melted white chocolate.
Notes
- Make sure to use large eggs at room temperature.
- Your butter must be softened, check out our post for the easiest way to softened butter (in 5 mins).
- Make sure your pistachios are unsalted.
- To check the muffins are done insert a toothpick into the center of one muffin, if it comes out clean they are cooked. If the toothpick has any wet batter on it then cook for a few minutes longer.
- let the muffins cool completely before serving.
- The muffins will keep well for up to 5-7 days or can be frozen. Thaw as needed and crisp up in a hot oven.
