I've lost the book that has my muffin recipe in.  Its a good basic recipe that has oil and milk in, not buttermilk but I just cant remember the recipe.  I works with what ever extras you put in, things like fruit and choc chips that sort of thing.  Anyone got one thats similar.
Thanks

Basic muffin
250g plain flour ..........for s/r flour use only 1 tsp baking powder.
3tsp(15ml) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) salt
85g granulated sugar
1 egg
240ml milk
90ml corn oil or 85g melted butter/marge
Line or grease muffin tins..preheat oven gas 5/6
Stir all dry ingredients together in large bowl
In a separate bowl beat egg lightly, stir in milk and oil.
Pour liquids into flour mixture sir for about 20 seconds. Mix will be lumpy but you should have no dry flour visible
Fill muffin cups, 10-11 standard sized muffins. Bake fr 20-25 mins

variations: add 3oz choc chips, or add teaspn coffee powder and 2oz chopped walnuts, or a handful raisins/sultanas

I have  good recipes for banana and choc chip, and spiced apple as well if you want them

Pour wet stuff into dry. Stir quickly until just combined. Mix will be thicker than usual but the apples release moisture as they cook.
