TLDRThe video demonstrates the muffin mixing method, focusing on achieving the right consistency in muffin batter. The process involves starting with accurately measured ingredients by weight. Initially, all dry ingredients like flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt are sifted together. Concurrently, liquid ingredients such as milk, eggs, and oil (or melted butter, if not using oil) are thoroughly combined with vanilla extract. It's crucial for the liquid ingredients to be well-mixed to prevent over mixing later when combined with dry ingredients. Once combined, the aim is to moisten all the dry parts without over mixing, as a slightly lumpy batter is preferable to ensure tender muffins. Mix-ins like fruit or chocolate can be added after this stage. The key takeaway is to mix minimally to avoid tough muffins.

    This video demonstrates the muffin mixing method. It starts with measuring ingredients by weight, then sifting dry ingredients like flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt using a sieve. Liquid ingredients like milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract are then whisked together, ensuring they are well combined to avoid overmixing with dry ingredients. This helps prevent a tough muffin texture. The liquid mixture is poured into the dry ingredients and mixed until moist, allowing lumps to remain for optimal muffin consistency. Finally, additional ingredients like fruits or chocolate can be mixed in as desired. Overall, the method emphasizes proper measurement and minimal mixing to achieve soft muffins.

  • What is the muffin mixing method?

    The muffin mixing method involves carefully sifting dry ingredients, combining liquid ingredients, and mixing until just moistened to avoid toughness.

  • Why should you sift dry ingredients in the muffin mixing method?

    Sifting dry ingredients helps to evenly distribute them and remove any lumps.

  • What liquid ingredients are used in the muffin mixing method?

    Liquid ingredients typically include milk, eggs, oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract.

  • Why is it important not to over mix the muffin batter?

    Over mixing can result in tough muffins, so it's better for the batter to remain slightly lumpy.

  • 00:00:00
    in this video we're going to learn about
  • 00:00:02
    the muffin mixing method
  • 00:00:12
    [Music]
  • 00:00:24
    so for any baking method we're going to
  • 00:00:27
    start with properly scaled ingredients
  • 00:00:29
    which I have scaled out by weight here
  • 00:00:32
    so to begin our muffin method we need to
  • 00:00:33
    start by sifting our dry ingredients
  • 00:00:36
    together so I'm gonna use a Tammy sieve
  • 00:00:39
    or a drum sieve for this just place this
  • 00:00:41
    right over top of my bowl so I'm gonna
  • 00:00:45
    add from this muffin ratio I'm using
  • 00:00:48
    we're gonna use flour sugar baking
  • 00:00:55
    powder and salt
  • 00:01:03
    I'm gonna use my bowl scraper and just
  • 00:01:05
    press the dry ingredients through my
  • 00:01:11
    sieve all right so I have my dry
  • 00:01:22
    ingredients sifted together
  • 00:01:23
    I'm gonna just set this aside and our
  • 00:01:26
    next step is going to be to combine all
  • 00:01:28
    of our liquid ingredients so that's
  • 00:01:31
    going to include for this ratio our milk
  • 00:01:37
    our eggs
  • 00:01:47
    and our oil for this ratio we're using
  • 00:01:49
    oil if I was using butter
  • 00:01:51
    I would melt the butter and I would
  • 00:01:53
    include that in my liquid ratio as well
  • 00:01:58
    and lastly I'll include my vanilla
  • 00:02:02
    extract all right now I want to use a
  • 00:02:06
    whisk and just combine all of my liquid
  • 00:02:10
    ingredients it's important that we have
  • 00:02:18
    the liquid ingredients well combined
  • 00:02:21
    because in our next step when we add our
  • 00:02:24
    liquid to our dry ingredients we're
  • 00:02:26
    gonna try to mix as little as possible
  • 00:02:27
    so if I didn't have my egg well
  • 00:02:31
    separated into my liquid ingredients I
  • 00:02:33
    would have to over mix when I added the
  • 00:02:35
    liquid to the flour which would give our
  • 00:02:37
    muffins a tough consistency so what I'm
  • 00:02:41
    gonna do is I'm gonna take my liquid
  • 00:02:42
    ingredients and pour them into my dry
  • 00:02:45
    just scrape out my bowl make sure I have
  • 00:02:47
    accurate ratio and I'm just going to mix
  • 00:02:54
    together my liquid and dry ingredients
  • 00:02:57
    until all of my flour all of my dry base
  • 00:03:01
    is moistened you're gonna see that this
  • 00:03:07
    this is going to be a little bit lumpy
  • 00:03:09
    and that's okay it's better to have this
  • 00:03:13
    be a little bit lumpy than to over mix
  • 00:03:17
    it and end up with tough muffins see I'm
  • 00:03:21
    scraping around the sides of my bowl
  • 00:03:23
    making sure I get the bottom so that
  • 00:03:25
    there's no areas that aren't mixed all
  • 00:03:33
    right so this is where I'm gonna stop
  • 00:03:36
    mixing at this point you can see that
  • 00:03:37
    all of our liquid and dry ingredients
  • 00:03:40
    have combined together and are well
  • 00:03:42
    moistened but there are still some lumps
  • 00:03:45
    remaining and that's okay it's better to
  • 00:03:47
    have this be a little bit lumpy then to
  • 00:03:52
    overmix it and end with tough muffins
  • 00:03:55
    this is also the point where if I was
  • 00:03:57
    going to add maybe some fruit
  • 00:03:59
    or chocolate pieces whatever it may be
  • 00:04:02
    that I would go ahead and add that and
  • 00:04:04
    mix that in as well all right so let's
  • 00:04:11
    review our muffin mixing method first
  • 00:04:14
    we're going to start by sifting together
  • 00:04:16
    all of our dry ingredients we're then
  • 00:04:19
    going to combine all of our liquid
  • 00:04:20
    ingredients including the fat and eggs
  • 00:04:22
    that we're using and then mix those wet
  • 00:04:25
    and dry ingredients together finally be
  • 00:04:28
    careful not to over mix your muffins
  • 00:04:30
    it's okay for the batter to be lumpy and
  • 00:04:33
    better to be lumpy than to have tough
  • 00:04:34
    muffins at the end
  • 00:04:36
