Why coffee muffins in autumn?

They are the perfect addition to a hot cup of coffee or tea and offer a harmonious taste experience with their mixture of sweet dough and bitter coffee aromas.
The fine coffee notes are ideal for the autumnal mood and provide a pleasant warmth from within. By adding ingredients such as chocolate, nuts or cinnamon, you can vary the muffins as you like and perfectly match them to your own autumn mood.

Tips for juicy coffee muffins
What makes coffee muffins so irresistible? It's the balance between the fine coffee aroma and a light, moist dough. To make sure the muffins are really fluffy, you should follow a few tips:
Strong coffee: Use a well-chilled, strong coffee or espresso for this recipe. This will bring out the coffee aroma particularly well in the muffins.
Do not stir too much: To ensure that the dough remains light and fluffy, the wet and dry ingredients should only be mixed together briefly. A few small lumps are not a problem.
Addition of chocolate chips or nuts: If you like, you can also add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the dough. These not only give the muffins a nice bite, but also an additional flavor.
Coffee muffins – versatile and easy
Whether as a sweet breakfast, as an accompaniment to afternoon coffee or as a snack on the go - coffee muffins are incredibly versatile. They are easy to transport and taste just as good fresh out of the oven as the next day. If you want, you can even freeze the muffins and reheat them as needed - that way you always have a little autumnal delicacy on hand.
Extra tip: Coffee muffins with autumn spices
For an extra autumnal treat, you can give your muffins a special touch with spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg or a pinch of cardamom. These spices harmonize wonderfully with the taste of coffee and conjure up a warm, spicy aroma that is perfect for the autumn season.
The perfect pastry for your coffee table
Serve your coffee muffins with a cup of freshly brewed organic Lungo Bellissimo, a creamy organic Lungo Cafe Crema or a spicy Charm of Chai. Decorate the table with a few autumnal elements such as chestnuts, colorful leaves or small pumpkins - and the autumnal coffee table is perfect!
