BUTTERMILK MUFFIN RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Heat oil in an 8" cast iron skillet or muffin pans for 5 minutes.

• Stir together buttermilk and egg; add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened.
• Pour into the hot skillet.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 with rack in the middle of the oven. Butter cake pans and line the bottoms with wax paper or parchment paper cut to fit. Butter the paper. If making cupcakes, use paper liners or butter the cupcake pan.
• Beat the butter and sugar at medium speed with electric mixer until light and fluffy in a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs one at a time. Scrape bowl and beaters to incorporate.
• Sift the flour with the baking powder and baking soda. Add one quarter of the dry mixture to the butter-egg mixture and then add the vanilla and a third of the buttermilk. Repeat beginning and ending with the flour mixture and scraping well after each addition.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pans and spread to the edges with a spatula. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
