morning muffins....

i love the quiet saturday morning before the kids are up....feeling a little betty crockerish this morning and made apple cinnamon muffins from  scratch from my favorite vintage betty crocker cook book....

apple muffins:
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup salad oil; stir in 1 cup grated apple with the oil
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour; add 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon with flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

topping:
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup broken nuts (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

bake for 18-20 minutes at 350. i have also made this recipe with fresh blueberries, if you do this option, take off the cinnamon with the flour- that is not needed. and, if you really want to try something different- i have added a 1/2 pear with the blueberries, and that is so delightful!! enjoy your saturday!
