    The season for cherries still going on here in Germany. So why not baking some more with these red little fellas? Maybe some delicious Cherry Streusel Muffins? Sounds good? They are super easy to make and go really well with a cup of coffee or tea – even on a hot summer day. So grab one, get your coffee and let’s meet on the balcony… just be careful with all the wasps outdoors. They also like these muffins a lot! ;P

    There is so much you can do with cherries – fresh, frozen, or from a glass jar. They go well in cakes, you can make awesome compote with them which can then be used again or cakes, cupcakes or other desserts. So good! I love me some fresh (and still warm) cherry compote with vanilla ice cream. Damn… I immediately start drooling ;P

    Well… today “just” got muffins – no compote and no ice cream. Even though a scoop of vanilla ice cream would work well with the muffins. Next time. The muffins alone are already great – awesome texture, packed with cherry flavor, and not to forget, the crunchy streusel topping. I love it. Add streusel on top and every cake and muffin is immediately nice. Don’t you think?

    The muffins are really easy peasy ready in no time. If you can’t get fresh cherries anymore where you live, you can easily substitute the fresh ones with frozen cherries or cherries from a glass jar… though I have to admit that fresh cherries (and the frozen ones) are best here. So in case you want to make these muffins here on the darkest day of winter to lighten up your mood… you can do so! ;)

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    1. Melt the butter for the streusel and let cool down again. Mix the flour and sugar in a bowl, add the melted butter and mix with a fork to form streusel. Add the sliced almonds and mix in. Place in the fridge until needed.

    2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°F). Line a muffin tin with tulip paper liners* and set aside. Wash, pit, and chop the cherries and set aside.

    3. Add the butter and sugar to a large bowl and mix at high speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix in. Mix the flour with baking powder, and salt and add with the milk to the bowl – mix on low speed until just combined. Add the chopped cherries and almonds and fold in carefully. Divide the batter between the paper liners, sprinkle with the streusel mix and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Take out of the oven and let cool down completely on a wire rack.

    1. Die Butter für die Streusel schmelzen und wieder etwas abkühlen lassen. Mehl und Zucker in einer Schüssel mischen und dann die geschmolzene Butter dazugeben – alles mit einer Gabel zu Streuseln verarbeiten. Die gehobelten Mandeln dazugeben und vermischen. Bis zur weiteren Verarbeitung in den Kühlschrank stellen.

    2. Den Ofen auf 180°C (350°F) vorheizen. Ein Muffinblech mit Tulpen Papierförmchen* bestücken und zur Seite stellen. Die Kirschen waschen, entsteinen und würfeln. Zur Seite stellen.

    3. Die Butter und den Zucker für den Teig in eine große Schüssel geben und auf höchster Stufe hell und luftig aufschlagen. Die Eier einzeln dazugeben und jeweils gut unterrühren. Vanille Extrakt dazugeben und unterrühren. Das Mehl mit Backpulver und Salz vermischen und dann zusammen mit der Milch zur Schüssel dazugeben und auf niedriger Stufe nur kurz vermischen. Die Kirschen und Mandeln dazugeben und unterheben. Den Teig auf die Papierförmchen verteilen und dann mit den Streuseln bestreuen. Für 25-30 Minuten backen. Mit einem Zahnstocher testen, ob noch Teig kleben bleibt und die Muffins erst herausholen, wenn er sauber herauskommt. Aus dem Ofen holen und auf einem Kuchengitter komplett abkühlen lassen.

    Hi, my name is Marc. I’m a graphic designer.
    I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake – for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers – and it seems they like it most of the time. ;)
