Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour The backbone of our muffins, creating a delightfully fluffy texture.
  • 1 packet (7g) instant yeast Works its magic quickly, allowing you to enjoy warm muffins.
  • 1 tsp sugar Helps activate the yeast.
  • 1 tsp salt Essential for flavor.

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water Needs to be warm enough to activate the yeast.
  • ¼ cup olive oil Adds richness; reserve some for greasing and drizzling.

Flavorings

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced Provides rich flavor.
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped Use fresh for the best flavor; or 1 tsp dried.
  • Coarse to taste sea salt for topping Adds a crunchy, salty bite.

Instructions
 

Start the Yeast Mixture

  • In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water, 1 tsp sugar, and 1 packet of instant yeast. Stir gently and let sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.

Create the Dough

  • Add 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tsp salt to the yeast mixture. Follow with ¼ cup olive oil and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Knead the Dough

  • On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Let It Rise

  • Lightly oil a bowl, place the dough in it, turning to coat. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes until doubled in size.

Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.

Punch Down the Dough

  • Punch down the risen dough, knead in the minced garlic and chopped rosemary until evenly mixed.

Portion it Out

  • Divide the dough into muffin cups, filling about ¾ full. Drizzle each with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse sea salt if desired.

Final Rest

  • Let the dough rest for another 10-15 minutes.

Bake to Perfection

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.

Cool and Enjoy

  • Allow the muffins to cool for about 5 minutes in the tin before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a vegan version, replace olive oil with plant-based oil. These muffins can also be frozen and reheated for later use.
