These look so good! I love the idea of little bits of marzipan throughout the cupcake!
Bianca says
Thank you! Yeah - those little bits of marzipan make every bite interesting :D
Strength and Sunshine says
They are a classic and these are totally taken up a notch! No one can pass up a muffin!
Bianca says
Thanks, Rebecca! I can't believe I didn't have a muffin recipe on the blog already (only some cupcake recipes). I love muffins and I make them a lot more often than cupcakes! Weird.. I'll have to post more of these in the future :) Now with the colder temperatures, I really enjoy baking again.
Natalie says
That inside shot looks heavenly! Light and fluffy and divine <3 Marzipan is definitely a flavor I need to experiment with more, because I really like it! I'm all about muffins, love this recipe Bianca!
Bianca says
Thank you, Natalie! I really like marzipan too, although I eat it mostly during the christmas time. I recently tried store-bought pistachio marzipan and it was delicious. I want to try a homemade (and maybe even healthier) version :)
Kyra says
This look sooo delicious! The only time I have had marzipan was when I made some when I was like, 8...I don't think I followed the recipe very well, because it really didn't taste nice, haha. I will have to try again (and then make these muffins :D).
Bianca says
Thanks Kyra! Wait.. you made marzipan when you were 8? I've never actually tried making marzipan myself, but I want to give it a try!
Kyra says
Hahaha I was a weird child I guess! The recipe was in a kids craft & cooking book, which had photograph step-by-step instructions. But like I said, it didn't turn out very nice haha :D
Bianca says
weird? You were such a cool kid! I didn't start cooking until I was like 14-15. I went vegetarian and my mum served me a sieved/strained bolognese sauce. That was the start of my cooking career =D hahaha
The Vegan 8 says
These look soooo good Bianca! Adding marzipan is such an amazing idea, wow!! One of my readers made my chocolate cinnamon muffins and added a huge dollop of marzipan on top, which blew me away...and now seeing these I'm craving marzipan! I need to get some and create something. These are just beautiful!
Bianca says
Thank you so much Brandi! Chocolate + Cinnamon + Marzipan sounds like a divine combination! I love it when readers add their own personal touch to recipes. It's the coolest thing ever when recipes evolve ^.^
winwinfood says
Yummy! These look super good Bianca :) I'm intrigued by the rice syrup - I have to try that!
Bianca says
Thank you Lucie! The rice syrup is great, although it's a bit less sweet than other liquid sweeteners (agave, maple,..). But the rice syrup is free of fructose, so that's why I'm using it :)
winwinfood says
Oh, ok, I just saw it at Alantura the other day, I'll have to try it out! :)
Melissa @ vegan does it says
Muffins are a favorite around our house. These look great and adding the marzipan sounds delicious. Adding these to my ever growing list of recipes to try :)
Bianca says
Oh yes! I know the feeling, my list of recipes I have to try is getting longer and longer too. A girl can only eat that often a day :D
Briana says
We made these last night (ate them all before we could take a pic!) and they were incredible! I loooooved the marzipan bits. These were some of the tastiest muffins I've ever made, and so moist!
