This recipe is from my Go To Favorite Cook Book. Betty Crocker's Cookbook.
I have been the proud owner of this treasure since 1972...a wedding present from my Mom.
I decided to make the Surprise Muffins (See below) and added 1 teaspoon of the Peach Cantaloupe Butter from "Little House Living"
Sweet Muffins
1 egg
1/2 cup Milk
1/4 cup Salad Oil
1-1/2 cups Gold Medal Flour*
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease bottoms of 12 medium muffin cups (2-3/4 inches in diameter) Beat egg; stir in milk and oil. Mix in remaining ingredients just until flour is moistened. Batter should be lumpy,
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately removed from pan.
12 muffins
* If using Self Rising Flour, omit baking powder and salt.
Surprise Muffins: Fill muffin cups only 1/2 full; drop 1 teaspoon jelly in the center of each and add batter to fill cups 2/3 full.
I did add a dash of nutmeg just because I like it!
