Irish Muffins


I made these muffins the other day for my husband so we could have some nice warm muffins with our morning coffee. This muffin recipe is made very similar to my Irish Soda Bread recipe and I could just imagine my Irish Grandmother taking these muffins out of her wood burning oven and sitting down to have coffee with my Grandpa. I love how food brings back so many wonderful memories for us and how we can keep passing our good memories along to our family and friends.

Fill each muffin paper 3/4 full. Top with Sparkling Sugar.
Bake the muffins at 400 degrees for 20 minutes and a tester comes out clean.

  1. These look delicious. Is 2 cups of raisins correct? That seems like way too many.

    1. Hi Charlotte,
      We like a raisin in every bite, so that is the measure that I used for the recipe. You could cut the raisin's back if it is to many for your family, we just like to bite into a nice raisin with the crumb. It is a great muffin and hope you enjoy it.Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great St. Patrick's day!

  2. These look delicious, and I love a recipe that doesn’t call for heavy equipment, but can just be stirred together. Thanks for sharing, I’m going to try these. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a muffin at breakfast, and I really need to remedy that.

  7. Hi, Just wondering, is 1/3 teaspoon of sugar right, or should it be 1/3 cup? 1/3 teaspoon just seems a bit small.

    1. Hi Patti,
      My goodness thank you so much for brining my attention to that oversight. It is 1/3 cup of sugar. I have corrected it in the recipe and the print, thank you so much for bringing that to my attention. These are great muffins and sure hope you enjoy them! Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy St. Patricks Day!
