Title: Baked Bean Muffins
Post by: judydawn on August 03, 2011, 08:45:35 am
Baked Bean Muffins - recipe makes 24  from this (http://www.extra.cheapskates.com.au/pages/default.cfm?page_id=23793) site (update Nov 2017 - Cheapskates link no longer works)

Preheat oven to 160oC, fan forced.
Grease 24 holes of muffin tins

120g sultanas (I used half sultanas & half goji berries)
250mls boiling water
Soak the sultanas in the boiling water and set aside.

Into the TM bowl place
3 eggs
200g oil (I used grapeseed)
300g sugar
1 tspn vanilla extract
425g can baked beans in tomato sauce

Mix for 15 seconds/speed 6.

Add
290g plain flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tspn cinnamon
1/2 tspn baking powder
1 tspn bicarbonate of soda
70g roughly chopped walnuts or pecans (opt)
sultanas and their soaking water

Mix for 20 seconds/speed 5.

Pour into muffin tins and bake for 30 minutes.  Allow to cool slightly in the muffin tins then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Denzelmum - Made this without sultana and only 250g sugar.  Very light and moist. It make heaps too. We got twenty four minis and sixteen texas muffins size. The color and texture remind me of Kimmyh's light carrot cake.

Are you serious, JD, or is this 1st April ;)?  They sound to be a totally unique muffin - I really think I will have to be a coward and wait a wee while before I give these a try ;D.

First prize for the most interesting recipe, though, I think.

I love baked beans Denise so had nothing to lose really. Sometimes you just have to have a go at something a little different, if you don't try it you will never know.  Nothing is easier than making muffins in the TMX.

I sat here openmouthed reading this recipe. Never would I have come up with using baked beans to make muffins. Very interesting and somewhat different from your usual run of the mill muffins.

Just noticed it took you 2 years to get around to trying this recipe Denzelmum - that's how many recipes we have on our to-do list  :D
Thanks for trying it, something different to the normal run of mill muffins and a great talking point when giving them to unsuspecting visitors.

I don't seem to remember these, more old timers disease!  Imagine saying to someone "oh, these are baked bean muffins". Judy I will have to try them just to be able to say I have made them. Do you think the baked bean haters in the family would know?

Not at all cookie, I had to tell my visitors - they didn't pick it.  Perhaps halve the recipe, it does make a lot.

Thanks. I may make the full amount and give some to the couple we went away with, he is very conscious of what he eats.

My mother used to say.......

" Beans Beans the musical fruit.
  The more you eat the more you toot.
  The more you toot the better you feel.
  Eat beans at every meal."
