I’m trying to build up my base of simple, easy basic recipes that you can alter and use for many purposes. And I’ve been looking for a good muffin recipe and I think I have one. This one has passed the muster so far and we’re testing it out on a few difference types…. next will be chocolate chip muffins and banana muffins… same base recipe with different add ins.

They turned out pretty nice. I adjust the recipe just a tad to be a little sweeter… we like a sweet muffin. If you don’t, then just back down the white sugar a bit. I want to try them with honey too, and see if that changes it any, but basically, here’s the skinny.

Simple Easy Muffins

2 cups all purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil

I mix it all up at once… just load up the bowl and mix away. Just till it’s all incorporated and all…. don’t overmix muffins! Add whatever you’d like… fruit, nuts, chips, veggie, cheese…. about a cup full.

Spoon into cups, cook in a 400 degree oven and they take about 25 minutes… watch them to see how they look about 20 minutes on.

Freeze great, store easy, and just yummy warm out of the oven!

Hey! Who couldn’t wait for me to take my final photo!!! HAHA!
