Yield 1 dozen

 

1 3/4 cups flour

1/4 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 teaspoon salt

1 egg, beaten

3/4 cup milk

1/3 cup cooking oil

1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1 cup blueberries

  1. Preheat oven to 400.

  2. Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl.

  5. Bake for 20 minutes or until tops are golden.

  6. May dip in butter and sprinkle with sugar after muffins are taken out of the oven.

  1. Add some fiber: In place of 1 3/4 cups flour, use 3/4 cups White Whole Wheat flour and 1 cup all-purpose flour.

  2. Cut the sugar: Use 2 tablespoons Stevia in place of sugar in the recipe. Omit dipping in sugar after baked.

  3. Non-Dairy Muffins:  Use almond or soy milk in place of milk and a non dairy margarine, if dipping the muffins.

  4. Oil free: Use 1/3 cup applesauce in place of oil.

  5. Strawberry or "other" berry muffin: Substitute the same amount of chopped strawberries or other berries in place of blue berries.

  6. Delish Gluten Free: Use a gluten free flour.
