How To Make Coffee Cake Muffins
Variations
Swap out the filler. If you’re more of a fan of fruity muffins for breakfast, swap out the chocolate chips for blueberries for a bright and sweet bite. Leave out the chocolate chips. For a classic coffee cake muffin, simply leave out the chocolate chips for a more traditional bite. Double the recipe. These coffee cake muffins reheat like a dream, so while you have the oven on, make extras to freeze for later.
What To Serve With Them
Coffee cake muffins pair well with a variety of different drinks and side dishes, depending on the time of day and the occasion. Here are some of my favorite things to pair these tasty treats with:
Coffee- As the name suggests, coffee is the traditional pairing for coffee cake muffins. The warm, rich flavor of coffee complements the sweet, moist muffins perfectly.Tea- If you’re not a coffee drinker, tea is another great option to serve with coffee cake muffins. The subtle flavors of tea can highlight the flavors in the muffins.Milk- For a classic pairing, serve the muffins with a cold glass of milk. The creamy, smooth texture of the milk complements the texture of the muffins.Juice-For a refreshing option, serve the muffins with a glass of juice such as orange juice, cranberry juice or apple juice. The acidity of the juice can help to cut through the sweetness of the muffins.Yogurt- If you’re looking for a more substantial side dish, consider serving the muffins with a bowl of yogurt. The tanginess of the yogurt can balance out the sweetness of the muffins.
How To Store And Freeze For Later
Coffee cake muffins will last for about 3-4 days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months. To thaw, place them in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours before serving.
