These are amazing. I substituted oatmilk with two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar for buttermilk, sprinkled them with red and white coarse sugar followed by plain white coarse sugar. I also listened and let the batter rest for 45 minutes. They look like sparkling bakery muffins and taste even better! I bake a lot and have made great muffins but these are by far the best I’ve ever made. Perfect for forgotten fridge strawberries!

Hi Pearline! You can use cake flour. If using the weights it will be the same. If measuring with cups, you will have to do a little bit of math. The general substitution for cake flour is 1c + 2 TBSP of cake flour for every 1c of all purpose flour in the recipe. Enjoy! 🙂

Can you use cake flour instead of flour and if so, how much cake flour?

Thanks,
Pearline

Hi Cindy! I haven’t personally tried it so I can’t say for sure how it would work.

Oh no!!!! I’m so sorry to hear that. 🙁 That is always so frustrating. It’s happened to me more than once. 🙁

I baked a batch of these to take to work tomorrow to share with my coworkers. As I was taking them out of the oven, one of my wrists gave out, and they landed all over the oven door and the floor! They smelled delicious, but I couldn’t salvage a single one! I’ll try again next week, because it’s late, and I’m so mad at myself right now!

I just made these. They’re so delicious, soft and moist! Will make it again. Thanks Sam for another delicious recipe!

Hi Fiona! The measurements are imperial, with the metric in parenthesis. 🙂

I have found that placing the muffins on a higher rack in the oven will improve the browning.

Thank you kindly

Hi Kathleen! I can’t say for sure. I haven’t tried it. 🙁

Hi Michele! While mine often do develop some golden browning you can see in the photos, you’re absolutely right baking soda would make them much more golden on top. I have extensively tested this recipe with various amounts of baking soda and have concluded that they’re much better without it altogether, so we ultimately sacrifice a bit of browning for better texture and flavor.

I think because there’s no baking soda in the recipe, only baking powder. Baking soda browns baked good on top, whereas baking powder does not. Sam, your thoughts about this detail?

Can this recipe be made in a loaf pan? I need to get new muffin pans mine are so old and rusting.

Hi Terri! I think that will work just fine. 🙂

Hi Kathy! They could have just needed another minute in the oven to get a little golden brown, but if they were delicious I wouldn’t mess with it. 🙂

Although the muffins were fully baked, they didn’t brown on top at all. What did I do wrong? By the way… they tasted amazing!
