versatile and basic muffins
(1 RATING)
My mother made these all the time and in a variety of ways.They are truly versatile and good.You can half the flour and use a cup of oatmeal or cornmeal with it to equal 2 cups,instead of milk,use oj or cider-add cranberries(orange cranberry muffins) or apples with nutmeg and cinnamon,raisans,buttermilk and caraway seed for an irish bread muffin,Almond extract,parmesian cheese with onion flakes...the possibilities are endless!Play with it as we often do and enjoy!
