Favorite Muffins

Yes it has been too long since I last posted. Sorry.

This recipe was stolen out of my 2nd husband's cookbook. While I never make them plain this is a great base for any flavor of muffins. Most often I make chocolate chip but apple cinnamon are great and of course classic blueberry.

Basic recipe:

1 egg beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 c vegetable oil
2 cups flour
1/2 sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt

Sift dry ingredients together
In a separate bowl mix all the wet ingredients together and beat
Add wet to dry and stir until moist
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full (about 1/4 -1/3 cup)
Bake at 400°f (200°c) 20-25 min

If you want to add fruit or chocolate chips you will need about 1/2 cup of what you are mixing in.

Ideas:
Chocolate chips
Blueberries
Raspberries
Cherries
If chocolate and fruit use 1/3 c of each
Apples, can be topped with a 'crumb topping' (butter, oatmeal and sugar with cinnamon or spices)

Go nuts! Add nuts!
