Ingredients

Basic Muffins

  • 2 cups flour

  • 1/2 cup boiling water

  • pinch of salt

  • addition of your choice (see Variations below)

Directions

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 12 compartments of a muffin pan with paper liners.

2.

Using a whisk, mix eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, baking powder, orange juice, and oil together in a large bowl until combined. Add flour, boiling water, and salt. Whisk just until batter is smooth.

3.

Gently fold in the addition of your choice until evenly distributed. (See Note below about adding blueberries or cranberries.)

4.

Divide batter evenly into prepared muffin pans, filling them almost to the top.

5.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden.

Notes:

When using blueberries or cranberries, you may prefer to fill the muffin compartments with batter before adding the fruit. Then simply push in the berries gently with your finger! This method helps prevent the color from leaking into the batter and discoloring it.

Variations Blueberry: Add one and a half cups blueberries (fresh or frozen) mixed with one tablespoon flour to the batter.

Cranberry: Mix one cup frozen cranberries with one-fourth cup sugar; add to the batter.

Chocolate Chip: Fold one and a half cups semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter.

Cherry Pecan: Fold in three-fourths cup chopped toasted pecans and three-fourths cup dried cherries into the batter.
