Tips for Making Sugar-Free Pumpkin Mini Muffins
## Pumpkin mini muffins have simple ingredients, so the cooking conditions and the state of the ingredients greatly affect their taste. ##
단호박 미니머핀은 재료가 단순해서 조리 조건·재료 상태가 맛을 크게 좌우함.
- Control Pumpkin Moisture: If the mashed pumpkin is too wet, the muffins may spread. Pat with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
너무 묽으면 쿠키처럼 퍼짐, 으깰 때 수분이 많으면 키친타월로 살짝 제거.
- Adjust Oat Flour: Add 1–2 extra tablespoons of oat flour if the batter feels too thin. It helps the muffins hold their shape.
반죽이 너무 질면 귀리 가루 1~2스푼 추가 →형태 유지 잘됨.
- For Air Fryer Users: Bake at 320°F (160°C) for about 13–15 minutes to keep them soft and moist.
에어프라이어 사용 시: 160 ℃ 약 13~15 분 구우면 적당히 촉촉함 유지.
- Enhance Flavor: Add a pinch of cinnamon for a warm, rich aroma.
색감·풍미 강화: 시나몬 한 꼬집 넣으면 향이 훨씬 풍부.
- Keep Them Soft: After cooling, store in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat for 10 seconds before eating.
부드러움 유지: 식힌 뒤 밀폐용기에 넣고 냉장 보관, 먹기 전 10초 데우면 갓 구운 질감 복원.
- For Babies: Use fully cooked pumpkin and only the egg yolk for easier digestion.
아기용일 경우: 단호박을 완전히 익혀 으깨고, 노른자만 사용하면 소화에 더 부드러움.
- Among these, tips #1, #2, and #5 make the biggest difference in texture and taste.
이 중 1·2·5번이 맛과 식감에 가장 영향 큼.
