Ingredients:

  • 2 cups white flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter muffin pans. Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the egg, milk, and butter, stirring only enough to dampen the flour; the batter should not be smooth. Spoon into the muffin pans, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes each.
  2. Blueberry Muffins. Use 1/2 cup sugar. Reserve 1/4 cup of the flour, sprinkle it over 1 cup blueberries, and stir them into the batter last.
  3. Pecan Muffins. Use 1/4 cup sugar. Add 1/2 cup chopped pecans to the batter. After filling the cups, sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon, and more chopped nuts.
  4. Whole-Wheat Muffins. Use 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour and 1 cup white flour.
  5. Date or Raisin Muffins. Add 1/2 cup chopped pitted dates or 1/3 cup raisins to the batter.
  6. Bacon Muffins. Add 3 strips bacon, fried crisp and crumbled, to the batter.
