This a very basic and easy muffins recipe.. its great because you can add on many different variations to it. it makes about a dozen of muffins.

Ingredients :

-2 cups all purpose flour

-3 tsp baking powder

-1/2 tsp salt

-3/4 cup white sugar

-1 egg

-1 cup milk

Method

-preheat the oven to 200 C

-stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Make a well in the center. In a small bowl beat egg with a fork stir in milk and oil. ” I like adding a tea spoon of vanilla to get rid of the egg’s smell ” pour all at once into the well of dry ingredients. Mix quickly and lightly with a fork until moistened, but do not beat. The batter with be lumpy. Lumpy batter makes the best muffins.

this time I added 1 cup of chopped strawberries. and folded in the mixture.

other variations:

Blueberry: 1 cup of fresh blueberries

Dates : 1 cup of chopped dates.

chocolate chip : 1 cup of chocolate chip

  the variations are endless. I like to experiment and dry different combination.

After folding the desired filling into the batter, pour the batter into prepared paper muffin pans and bake for 25 or until golden.

I used silicon muffin/cupcake molds.

Serve while warm. can be reheated.
