Date Muffins

Cookinero 22 Feb 2025

Dates are rich in useful substances that are difficult to find in regular products. For example, they contain a lot of magnesium, silicon and potassium, B vitamins and biotin. Therefore, date muffins are not only a tasty, but also a healthy dessert for a hearty snack and a festive table. Their preparation will not take you much time, and detailed instructions will help you do everything right.

How to cook Date Muffins

Step 1

Date Muffins

Separate the whites from the yolks. Put the yolks aside for now, and pour the whites into a large container and beat with a mixer or blender until fluffy and stiff peaks form. Properly beaten whites are white and have a stable structure - they do not spread.

Step 2

Date Muffins

Add yolks and sugar to the whites and mix well.

Step 3

Take another deep bowl, pour milk into it, add butter and soda. Whisk until the butter dissolves and bubbles appear.

Step 4

Date Muffins

Combine the beaten eggs and milk with the butter. In a separate bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder and carefully, stirring constantly, pour it into the egg-butter mixture.

Step 5

Date Muffins

Add a pinch of salt to the dough and mix again until smooth.

Step 6

Drain the dates and cut into small cubes.

Step 7

Date Muffins

Place the muffin tins on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and pour the batter into them - about halfway, maybe a little more.

Step 8

Date Muffins

Add chopped dates to the molds with dough and put the muffins in the oven for 25 minutes at 200 °C. Check the readiness with a toothpick: if it comes out dry, then the muffins are ready.
