Mango Pecan Muffins with Citrus Glaze Mango Pecan Muffins with Citrus Glaze


A sweet-and-sour glaze is the perfect compliment to these nutty muffins accented with sour cream and vanilla. This recipe was provided by The Cypress Bed-and-Breakfast Inn, Sarasota, Florida.

 
 

INGREDIENTS
Batter:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups mango, skinned and cut into a small dice
2 tablespoons lemon zest
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon dark rum
 

METHOD

Preheat oven to 375°. Lightly butter a muffin tin coated with DuPont SilverStone® non-stick. In a large bowl of an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs, beating in 1 at a time. Add the sour cream, milk, and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in the mango and lemon zest; set aside.

In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet egg mixture, stirring until combined. Do not overmix. Spoon the batter into the muffin pan and sprinkle chopped pecans over the top. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until a tester comes clean. Remove muffins from the pan and let cool 5 minutes.

Nest, mix the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and rum in a small bowl. Drizzle over the top of the muffins once they have slightly cooled.

Robert Belott, Chef/Owner of Cypress Bed-and-Breakast Inn

Sarasota is a small, yet culturally rich city filled with fine dining, corner cafes and bistros, plus swanky gift and antiques shops. Nestled among woods and grapefruit trees is The Cypress Bed-and-Breakfast Inn, providing casually elegant rooms, individually decorated with a Victorian influence.

While the city has much to offer, breakfast at the inn should not be missed. Chef/Owner Robert Belott is one of Sarasota's top chefs. During your stay, enjoy his primi piatti: special hors d'oeuvres served late-afternoon in the parlor with owners/innkeepers Vicki Hadley and Nina Belott.
