Twin Mountain Muffins

"This is a basic muffin recipe that my mother used to make for us. I believe she got it from one of her old cookbooks, although I'm not sure. It's an easy recipe that is good for beginning bakers. It can be made less sweet to accompany savory meals (mom often served them with chili), or it can be made sweeter and fruit, such as blueberries, or other flavorings added to them. You can also adjust the amount of egg used. I like to make them with both eggs and about 2-4 T sugar."

  1. Hally, I cant belive no one has ever reviewed this recipe so far! It is absolutely FABULOUS! I added in some fresh blueberries and the muffins came out moist, fluffy and super tasty. They reminded me a bit of custard in the centre. YUM! I made half the recipe using one egg and 2tbs of sugar, which made for the perfect amount of sweetness for me. I ended up with 6 big muffins, that were gobbled up immediately by my family. Thanks so much for sharing this winner with us, Hally!
