How to Make Bakery Style Pistachio Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare your muffin tin with parchment liners or grease.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat together 3/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of melted butter for 2 minutes until light and creamy.
  3. Add 2 large eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1 tsp of almond extract, and beat until just combined.
  4. Stir in the 3.4 oz box of instant pistachio pudding and 1/2 cup of milk until just combined.
  5. Fold in 1 3/4 cups of flour, 2 tsp of baking powder, and 1/2 tsp of salt until no dry flour remains.
  6. Divide the batter among muffin liners, filling 3/4 full. Sprinkle chopped pistachios on top if desired.
  7. Bake at 425°F for 7 minutes, then lower to 350°F for another 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Allow to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before dipping in melted butter and sugar.
