The Best Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients

Makes 1 dozen muffins

  • 1¼ cup / 210g all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup / 150g white sugar, plus more for sprinkling
  • ¼ cup / 35g corn starch
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp kosher or sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2½ cups fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup / 120mL whole milk
  • 2 Tbsp salted butter, melted
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 1 large egg

Method

  1. Pre heat the oven to 400F / 205C.
  2. Butter a 12-cup muffin tin, cups and the flat overspill areas between, line each cup with cupcake liners.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Tip in the fresh blueberries and toss to coat.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, butter, extracts, and egg. Tip into the blueberry mixture and using a spatula fold gently just until the batter comes together.
  5. Divide the batter among the tins and sprinkle with additional sugar. Place the tin on a sheet tray lined with tin foil and place into the oven.
  6. Bake until golden brown and domed on top, about 23-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean of wet batter.
  7. Transfer tin to a rack and allow to cool slightly before removing from the tins. Serve hot with butter.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageWith Thanksgiving coming up, here’s a little look back at last week’s TODAY All-Star Thanksgiving. We celebrated 10 years of holiday tradition with the @todayshow family and so many incredible chefs sharing their favorite recipes. 🍁✨

This year, I shared my Cranberry Yuzu Whipped Feta Dip, a bright, creamy appetizer that brings a zesty Korean twist to the holiday table. Tart cranberries meet sweet yujacha (a Korean honey citron fruit tea), with a hint of gochugaru and a cloud of whipped feta for the perfect holiday harmony.

It was such a joy being back on set with @laurajarrett, @craigmelvinnbc, and @dylandreynbc, and the rest of the @todayfood @nbcnews family.

And what a fun time celebrating with

We’re two weeks from Thanksgiving… the perfect time to start planning your menu.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageAd. Sweet, chewy, and a little unexpected. 🍯✨

@ocadouk just launched a Korean aisle featuring some of my go-to ingredients, and I couldn’t resist sharing one of my favorite recipes based on a classic nostalgic treat…Hotteok Crispy Rice Treats. 🇰🇷

Inspired by Hotteok, Korea’s iconic winter street snack usually stuffed with brown sugar and peanuts, these rice crispy treats take those cozy flavours and give them a twist. The secret ingredient? White miso, a fermented soybean paste that adds gentle umami, saltiness, and perfectly balances the sweetness of the marshmallows and chocolate.

A fun bit of culinary history: Hotteok originally arrived in Korea with Chinese merchants in the late 19th century, but it wasn’t until cooking oil became widely available in the 1970s that it turned into the beloved winter staple we know today. Crispy on the outside, gooey in the middle, and sold steaming hot on every street corner.

This no-bake version captures that same comfort in a quick, modern bite. They’re sticky, sweet, and full of Seoul. 💛

Makes 12-16 treats

Ingredients:
non-stick spray or a little neutral oil, to coat the dish
85g unsalted butter
4 tsp white miso paste
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
285g mini marshmallows
165g crispy rice cereal
45g dry roasted peanuts, chopped

For the Chocolate Drizzle (optional)
85g dark chocolate chips
1½ tsp coconut oil

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageWelcome back to the K-Viral Kitchen. Today 
I’m bringing you a new creation from my kitchen — Churro inspired Tteok…the mash-up you didn’t know you needed. 🍡✨

Crispy, chewy Korean rice cakes fried to golden perfection & rolled in cinnamon sugar. 

And the best part? Dipping them into a warm, spicy-sweet gochujang caramel. 

I wanted something festive, fun, and a little unexpected for the holidays…so I dreamed up 
this mash-up. 

A little Korean chew meets a little Spanish sweetness. A holiday treat with a cross-cultural twist.

Crispy outside, chewy inside, sweet heat in every bite. Pure comfort with a Seoul-ful kick. 💛
