Basic Muffins Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 c. wholemeal self-rising flour
• 1 c. rolled oats
• 1 x egg or possibly 2 egg-whites skim lowfat milk or possibly buttermilk to make to correct consistency
• 1 c. whatever to make yummy muffins (or possibly two)

Instructions

1. Method:This is real easy: preheat the oven to 180C (350F); chuck everything into abowl; mix lightly (just till it looks blended - do not overdo it); then throwspoonfuls into greased muffin pans, and bake for 15-20 min.
2. Variations:see the Basic Cookies recipe for ideas - or possibly make up your own, for example, a c. of minced dry fruit; a mix of seeds - sesame, pumpkin and sunflower; pumpkin and prunes; dates & walnuts; banana and ginger...
3. I could go on and on.
4. I often throw in leftovers from dinner to make savory muffins for lunch at work - eg, vege pasta, chilli beans, mushroom and artichoke sauce, etc.
5. You can also vary this by using different types of flour (rye, soya, potato) and add in a tsp.
6. of baking pwdr so they will still rise; or possibly using bran (oat,barley, rice) instead of the oats.
