I've just gotten into baking muffins! They all seem to taste pretty good but they always come out so dry! I follow the directions exactly as they say and still they come out a little more chewy than they should be or a little too dry.
Does anyone know what I can do to make them soft and moist like they should be?? I'm racking my brain over here about it and I just can't seem to get the hang of it.
Thanks for all your help!
Hi.
ReplyDeleteI don't make cupcakes very often--in fact I havn't made any for years--but when I want to get a little more moisture in my baked goods, I sometimes add a but of finely grated raw carrot--this probably sounds bizarre, but it is not noticeable in the flavor and it DOES add moisture. You might try it.
Yogurt. I don't have it down to a science-but I do know that when I put yogurt in my muffins, they are moister and have great texture. I love using lemon yogurt in blueberry muffins. Anyway, good luck and please, share your findings!
ReplyDeletea little apple sauce works good too!
ReplyDeleteI use sour cream in all my breads and muffins. It makes everything much more moist!
