Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup brewed strong coffee (cooled)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp instant coffee granules
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder (optional)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder (if using), and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, brewed coffee, and melted butter until smooth.
- Gradually add the coffee mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer mocha flavor, add chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
- Use high-quality brewed coffee for maximum flavor.
- Ensure the coffee is cooled before adding to the batter to prevent cooking the eggs.
