A no-fail muffin recipe that I modified from my Fannie Farmer cookbook, copyright 1980. I make a batch every week and they get devoured. They're great for a breakfast on the fly with a banana and coffee. I do find that they're a mite heavy, so I increase the milk a little bit. Sometimes I use heavy cream. Sometimes I add a bit of sour cream. They ALWAYS come out great! Hope you enjoy.
