How to Make Amaretto Muffins
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, ¼ cup amaretto liqueur, and ½ cup slivered almonds.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
- Fill the muffin cups about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
