Muffins

by - April 29, 2010

 Whole Wheat muffins;

Ingredients:

2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup white sugar (that's what he recipe says, but I use organic cane sugar every time, and it tastes fine)
6 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups milk
2/3 vegetable oil (I just use olive oil)
2 eggs

*note:
This is the recipe doubled. I doubled it because 12 muffins lasts about a day and a half in this house. This will make 24 muffins, but if that's too much, just half it.

Here is my arrangement of the tools I would need( I hadn't gotten the bowls out yet)

 I didn't have enough baking powder, so I made it. For all you who may have the same problem as I (the recipe calls for a LOT of baking powder!) Here is a quick way to make baking powder:


Put 4 tablespoons of Cream of Tartar in a jar with 2 tablespoons of Baking Soda and 2 tablespoons of Corn Starch. Shake it up, and Voila!




Line two mufin trays with muffin cups, or grease them with butter






Heat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).


In a meduim bowl, combine Flours, sugar, baking powder and salt.







                                   Mix Well...........






In a different bowl, pour eggs, oil and milk, and whisk well.









                                     Pour the mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients



                                       


 Mix just until the dry ingredients are damp




Take two medium sized spoons and spoon large-ish globs of batter into the muffin cups. I never measure them officially, I just..........follow my intuition?




Put then in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. 

Let cool for 1 minute. 


Enjoy!!!


       These are my favorite muffins ever. I prefer plain and simple, but if you like, you can add about a cup of berries or chocolate chips or whatever you like.


Well, I'm off to enjoy a cup of tea and a fresh muffin, while listening to that bothersome snowy wind.

*grr*

It's APRIL!!! My goodness!

  1. Love the makeover! I especially like the header!

    The whole wheat muffins sound good! My family doesn't (or we *try*) not to eat white flour, so this seems like a good recipe.
