Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour (or 1 cup [160 g] superfine rice flour and 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup plain yogurt, preferably whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare the muffin tin with nonstick spray.

  • In another bowl, blend yogurt, sugar, eggs, browned butter, and vanilla extract until creamy.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until moistened.
  • Pour the batter into muffin cavities and place halved apricots skin-side down on top. Sprinkle sugar on top.

Notes

Ensure the butter is cooled before adding to prevent cooking the eggs early.
Feel free to use seasonal stone fruits for a fresh twist.
