Muffins with licorice toffee? To be honest, that sounds a bit strange at first, doesn't it? I tried the combination anyway, since my husband loves licorice. Anyone expecting a standard sweet muffin probably won’t like the licorice flavour. But if you like licorice candy, and are adventurous enough to try new things, then these licorice toffee muffins are perfect for you. You can use either sweet or salted licorice for the recipe. To intensify the flavour, add a couple of tablespoons of licorice liqueur to the batter too.
- 210 g All purpose flour
- 1 ½ tsp Baking powder
- 1/3 tsp Baking soda
- 75 g Butter, softened
- 75 g Erythritol or white sugar
- 2 Medium eggs
- 1/2 tsp Pure vanilla powder
- 150 g Crème fraîche, at room temperature
- 120 g Licorice toffee, cut into smaller pieces
|
- Preheat the oven to 190C/375F and line a muffin pan with 8-10 muffin cases.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and baking soda in a bowl.
- Beat the butter and erythritol or sugar together until light in colour. Add the eggs and vanilla powder and whisk together.
- Mix half of the flour mixture into the butter mixture, then add crème fraîche, now stir in the remaining flour mixture. Fold in the chopped licorice toffee.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cases, then bake for 20-22 minutes until lightly golden and firm to the touch. Allow to cool in the pan.

...my Sweetie loves licorice, me not so much.
That is an interesting combination. Were the licorice pieces chewing? I like licorice and it might be an interesting try. Happy new week.
We have someone in the family who would adore these!
Strange for sure, but looks so lovely!
Licorice is such a strange thing-a-ling indeed. We don't have it in caramel form, only the candy factory Pionir in my city makes licorice hard handy for throat,but they are mostly popular among the old people LOL
Hubby loves licorice.
Yes, the one I used for the recipe is caramel like, so soft and chewy.
Hello,
I have never seen muffins made with licorice, that is different.
Happy Monday, have a great day!
I would have never thought to include licorice in muffins.. what a brilliant idea. They look great.
Did I ever tell you that I adore licorice? These are right up my alley.
What a great and creative use of licorice! I cannot identify myself as a big licorice fan, but I don't mind those toffees that are mild in flavour.
These looks tasty, I love licorice :-D
This is new to me but I do like licorice.
I love licorice. I’d eat some.

Muffins adoro porém esse ainda não comi fiquei curiosa, Angie bjs.
I can have a muffin any time
This is a very original recipe Angie!
They sure look good but I'd pass on the licorice.
Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
These are a big yes for me!

DIL3 loves licorice. I am sharing this recipe with her.
El regaliz no me gusta mucho, pero seguro que estos muffins sí, se ven divinos.
Liquorice and muffins somehow just don’t seem to go together. Maybe a Morning Glory muffin with a shot of Sambuca would be better!
OK, wow! Never would've though of licorice muffins! Didn't know there was such a thing as salted licorice, either!
That's an interesting combination.
It looks tempting.
Hello Angie :)
I like muffins and I like licorice toffee. This is a most unusual recipe but I bet it's good.
I love licorice and can only imagine how good these are. Licorice is a funny thing — people seem to love or hate it! David (C&L)
Wow! What a fun and unique recipe! Love this spin!
Licorice toffee muffins? Now that’s a bold flavor adventure! Love how you’ve turned a polarizing candy into something unexpectedly bakery-worthy, especially with that crème fraîche twist for richness.
I don't mind a bit of liquorice now and then, esp. chocolate-covered liquorice bullets:) My Dutch BIL introduced me to the salty stuff - different but i liked it!

molto originali, saranno buonissimi!
