I have the hardest time making muffins. They tend to be dry and/or heavy. Luckily, this recipe is the exception so I make them often. I use large muffin pans (6 muffins instead of 12). The recipe below says the yield is 15. With the large pans, I get 8-9.

  • 3
    In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix in 3/4 cup granulated sugar. (I sometimes add additional poppy seeds to batter.) In a small bowl, blend together remaining ingredients.

    Make a well in flour mixture and add the wet ingredients stirring just until moist. Spoon batter into muffin cups about half full. Sprinkle streusel evenly over the batter.
