Quick muffins

Yield: 12 servings

Measure Ingredient
1¾ cup all-purpose flour
2.00 teaspoon baking powder
1.00 teaspoon baking soda
1.00 pinch salt
1.00 \N stick unsalted butter; room temperature
¾ cup sugar
2.00 \N eggs; lightly beaten
1.00 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly grease a 12-cup muffin pan.

In a bowl, beat butter and sugar until well-combined; add eggs and mix thoroughly. Stir in buttermilk. Into a large bowl sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; make a well in center. Pour buttermilk mixture into well and use a rubber spatula to blend with quick strokes. Do not overmix batter; it should still be slightly lumpy.

Spoon batter into muffin tins, filling them three-quarters full, and bake until slightly puffed and golden, 18 to 20 minutes. This recipe yields 12 muffins.

Variations: Add ½ cup of one of following ingredients: rinsed fresh blueberries; raisins or currants; chopped apples tossed with ½ teaspoon cinnamon; or poppy seeds tossed with 2 teaspoons lemon zest or 3 drops lemon oil.
