wild blueberry corn muffins
with Meyer Lemon and Thyme Curd
RECIPE COURTESY OF WILD BLUEBERRIES
Ingredients
Preparation
The day before, make the lemon curd. Pour about 1 inch of water
Meyer Lemon Curd:
in the bottom of a small pot and bring to a simmer. In a heat proof
* 4 large organic eggs plus
bowl, whisk together the eggs and the egg yolks. Whisk in honey,
* 3 egg yolks
lemon zest and juice, thyme and vanilla. Place over the pot and cook,
* 1/3 cup honey
whisking constantly for 10 minutes until thickened. Mine stayed thin
* 2 tablespoons meyer lemon zest
until the end, then magically thickened in the last minute or so. Re-
* 1/2 cup meyer lemon juice
move from heat, stir in butter and a pinch of salt, whisk until butter
* 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
is melted and combined into curd. Top with a layer of plastic wrap
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
directly over the curd. This keeps it from forming a weird, rubbery
* 6 tablespoons cold organic butter, cut into pieces
skin on top. Refrigerate 8 hours or until ready to use.
Muffins:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt
* 1 cup cornmeal
in a medium bowl. Whisk eggs, honey, olive oil, lemon zest and juice
* 1/2 cup spelt flour, whole wheat pastry flour or
in a large bowl. Whisk dry mixture into wet mixture until just com-
white whole wheat flour (or more cornmeal for
bined. Stir in Wild Blueberries. Divide a little more than half the batter
a gluten free version)
into 8 lined or well-oiled muffin tins. Top with a scoop (about 2 table-
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
spoons) of curd. Top with the remaining muffin batter. Bake about 25
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
minutes until the tops are lightly golden. It's a little difficult to tell if
* 3 eggs
the muffins are cooked through, as the whole toothpick in the center
* 3 tablespoons honey
trick won't work with the curd. You should be able to tell looking at it,
* 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
but if you're unsure, these muffins are fairly forgiving if you overcook
* Zest from 1 meyer lemon
them slightly, as the curd keeps them moist. Let cool in the tin until
* 2 tablespoons meyer lemon juice
almost room temperature. Carefully remove from the tin, running a
* 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
butter knife along the sides if needed.
