The Muffin Story!
Glass muffins! that is what my little one calls it when he was little. These candied papaya cubes aka tutti frutti looks like glass, he always gets excited to see these Tutti frutti shortbreads.
The past one month, he is enjoying his favorite bakes, baked for the month long bake-a-thon. His favorite was Carrot & Ginger muffins and Pear chocolate chip muffins. Husband's favorite was Dil pasand Sweet Puffs. My mom loved the recent bake Almond & Cherry Cake.
Baking excites me, even after these 10 years, I still watch with awe how a bake rises in the oven. The process is relaxing, soothing and therapeutic, I m sure every baker feels the same. These colorful vanilla tutti frutti muffins were baked as part of December bakes, but I didn't get time to post it. So, here it is as first post of 2023. Wishing you all a colorful and delish New Year 2023, like these soft and fluffy vanilla muffins!
Ingredients to Make Tutti Frutti Muffins
- Whole wheat flour, for personal reasons I bake only with whole wheat flour. You can use All purpose flour instead of whole wheat flour.
- I have used baking powder to make these vanilla tutti frutti muffins.
- Milk, liquid used to make these whole wheat vanilla muffins.
- Fat, I have used butter in this recipe, you can also substitute it with any flavorless oil.
- Flavorings, I have used vanilla essence in this fruity muffin .
- Tutti Frutti, candied colorful tutti frutti is added into the batter and also as a garnish in this colorful muffins.
How to make Whole Wheat Vanilla Muffins
Please check recipe card below for exact measurements of each ingredient used and also for the detailed instructions
- Grease/line muffin pans with parchment. Preheat the oven to 160C.
- Measure all ingredients and keep them ready on the counter at room temperature.
- In a wide bowl, mix together flour and baking powder. Whisk well to get a uniform mix of flour.
- In another wide bowl, take milk and sugar, mix well for the sugar to dissolve. To this now add butter. Whisk well to combine.
- To the dry flour mix, add tutti frutti and mix well. This ensures, the candied fruit doesn't sink to the bottom of the muffins.
- Now add the dry flour mix in batches to the wet mix. I used whisk to combine and after adding all the flour, use spatula and combine well.
- Divide the batter into the lined muffin tin. Sprinkle some tutti frutti on top of each muffin as garnish.
- Bake them in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven, let them sit in the pan for 5 minutes. Then carefully remove them onto a wire rack. Let them cool completely.
- The muffins pack well in school snack boxes. They can be a great picnic snack or as a pick me up breakfast.

These colorful vanilla muffins make a great snack for school boxes. My younger one enjoyed these muffins everyday for the past week. Not to mention the beautiful glassy fruit topping, that makes it more attractive to kids.
They make a great snack for picnics and get togethers. If you are worried about milk in the muffins, you can replace it with soy milk for a vegan version.

My husband would be your son's partner as he loves tutti frutti. I have to hide the tutti frutti from him so he does not eat them all before I make use of it in a recipe. This muffin is one of his favorites. So colorful and festive.

Hi, I’m looking to try this recipe. Pls could you clarify what you mean by 6 servings? Would it still make 12 muffins?
