Simplest ever yogurt muffins
Ever** since his famous No Knead Bread, I have been in love with Mark Bittman. Needless to say I was so excited when S got me his 'How to cook everything vegetarian' a couple of years ago. That book is an encyclopedia and even for someone who has been cooking vegetarian stuff all these years, I discover new ideas all the time. His muffins chapter has a simple muffins recipe and all the modifications / substitutions you can make to bake your favourites. On a Sunday morning, these seemed like the perfect things to go with a cup of milk as a light breakfast to precede a heavy lunch
- 3/4 cup AP flour
- 1/4 cup corn meal
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsps sugar
- 1 tbsp butter oil or melted
- 3/4 cup yogurt
- 2 tbsps tea strong fruit infusion / flavoured -
- Handful raisins berries of or rehydrated dried
Preheat oven at 400 F or 200 Celsius.
Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl with a fork.
In a small bowl, whisk the wet ingredients (oil, yogurt and tea).
Make a well in the large bowl with the flour and add the wet ingredients, bring them together with a spatula until mixed yet lumpy. Do not try to over mix or beat.
Line a muffin tray with paper cups or oil the cups.
Spoon into 6 medium sized muffins and bake for 15 minutes till golden brown.
Eat warm.
Note:
I usedstrong fruit infusion / flavoured tea insteadof egg
