BEST EVER (AND MOST VERSATILE) MUFFINS!
These are wonderful for just throwing in your favorite ingredients---I don't need any other muffin recipes. Editing to add, based on a recent review: Be sure not to overmix muffins; if you do, they will be tough. They should still be lumpy when you are finished mixing them.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line 2 muffin trays with paper muffin cases. In a large bowl beat 2 medium eggs lightly with a handheld electric mixer for 1 min.
- Add 125ml vegetable oil and 250ml semi-skimmed milk and beat until just combined then add 250g golden caster sugar and whisk until you have a smooth batter.
- Sift in 400g self-raising flour and 1 tsp salt (or 400g plain flour and 3 tsp baking powder if using) then mix until just smooth. Be careful not to over-mix the batter as this will make the muffins tough.
- Stir in 100g chocolate chips or dried fruit if using.
- Fill muffin cases two-thirds full and bake for 20-25 mins, until risen, firm to the touch and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. If the trays will not fit on 1 shelf, swap the shelves around after 15 mins of cooking.
- Leave the muffins in the tin to cool for a few mins and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

FEATHER LIGHT CORN MUFFINS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour 8 muffin cups or line them with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, sift the dry ingredients together. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, then 1/3 of the melted butter, and stir gently just until incorporated. Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients and melted butter, being careful not to over-mix; there may be a little flour not mixed in at the end. Use an ice-cream scoop or large spoon to fill the muffin cups half full. Bake until risen, light golden brown, and firm to the touch, about 15 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes in the pan.
- Molasses Butter: Cream the ingredients in a food processor or an electric mixer until fully combined. Strawberry Butter: Clean and hull the strawberries. Place all of the ingredients in a food processor and cream until fully combined.
- To serve, spoon a dollop of jam, or spread the compound butters onto the top of the muffins.
SUPER MOIST MUFFINS
These are so good, you'll think you are eating something that can't possibly be good for you...but they are! I feel great about giving these to my kids. Easy to throw together, moist and not too sweet. Keep leftovers in the fridge or freeze them for up to a month.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl and by hand, stir together the brown sugar, applesauce and oil until well combined.
- Add both eggs and vanilla and whisk until well combined.
- Set aside and combine dry ingredients well in a seperate bowl.
- Stir dry ingredients into previously set aside wet ingredients just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir carrot and pineapple into batter.
- Spray your muffin pan very well with nonstick spray. Get the sides good so your muffins release well -- yes, even if you use nonstick (I do too).
- Using a 1/4 cup measuring tin for mini muffin pan or 1/2 cup tin for regular muffin pan, fill holes almost full and bake approx 15 minutes for mini muffins or 20 minutes for regular. Your oven may vary, but a toothpick inserted into middle muffin hole should be moist, with a few crumbs, but not sticky wet.
- Feed your flock and enjoy!
