BLUEBERRY MUFFINS, BASIC

This is my standby recipe from “Joy of Cooking”. Once you get used to it, you can make it even on a school morning!

Whisk together in a large bowl:
1 cup flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda (eliminate if you don’t use buttermilk or yogurt)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon nutmeg

Whisk together in another bowl:
2 large eggs, then
1 cup buttermilk, yogurt, or milk
2/3 cup sugar (white or brown) or honey
4 – 8 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 teaspoon vanilla

1 ½ cups blueberries

Mix wet stuff into the dry stuff until just combined. Fold in blueberries. Drop into greased or lined muffin cups and bake for about 20 minutes. You can obviously try other fruits and/or nuts with these, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before baking, etc.
