Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 ¼ cups (280 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup (170 g) seedless raspberry jam
Sweeteners:
- ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup (40 g) powdered sugar
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350℉ and coat a jumbo muffin tin with non-stick spray, ensuring complete coverage of each well.
- Blend softened butter with granulated sugar, powdered sugar, vanilla, and almond extracts using an electric mixer until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold all-purpose flour and kosher salt into the butter mixture, stirring minimally to maintain a slightly crumbly texture.
- Distribute approximately ¼ cup of the crumbly dough into each muffin well, carefully pressing the mixture along the bottom and slightly up the sides without compacting too firmly.
- Delicately place a generous dollop of raspberry jam into the center of each prepared crust, creating a vibrant fruity core.
- Scatter the remaining dough over the jam, creating a rustic, uneven topping that will add delightful texture and visual appeal.
- Transfer the muffin tin to the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, watching for a light golden-brown coloration that signals perfect doneness.
- Remove from the oven and allow the raspberry crumble delights to cool completely within the tin, which helps them set and makes removal easier.
- Carefully loosen the edges with a knife if needed, then gently extract each delicate pastry from the muffin wells.
Notes
- Jam Selection Matters: Choose high-quality, thick raspberry jam with real fruit chunks for the most vibrant and authentic flavor profile.
- Precision in Mixing: Softened butter is crucial for achieving the perfect crumbly texture, so let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before starting.
- Crust Technique: Gently press the dough into muffin wells, leaving a light, airy texture that prevents dense, hard-to-eat cookies.
- Baking Watch: Keep an eye on the edges during baking; golden-brown indicates the perfect doneness without burning the delicate crumble.
- Cooling is Key: Allowing the raspberry crumble cookies to cool completely ensures they hold their shape and develop a delightful crisp exterior.
- Storage Tip: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, separating layers with parchment paper to maintain their delicate texture.
