Buttermilk Muffins

On Saturday January 12th a muffin was needed. Sometimes that happens. You wake up, and think, "Hey, I need a muffin." That's what happened to me.
Since the purpose of this blog is to try out new a different recipes from my cookbooks. So, that meant I could NOT make a muffin recipe I had already tried, as sad as that is. My husband suggested Buttermilk muffins, but I was wary. Buttermilk biscuits, hell yeah, buttermilk pancakes are a favorite. Buttermilk Muffins? I was intrigued, if only mildly.
The recipe was chosen from the Better Homes and Gardens New Baking Book. It is a spiral bound style cookbook, with some very basic, but delicious recipes. They supply one basic muffin recipe with many variations. This is a recipe that can be used to suit whatever one had on hand, from blueberries to apples with cinnamon. The recipe was straight forward and very easy. The cooking time was also accurate.
My husband ate three. Need I say more?
My daughter spread hers with lemon curd. She was skeptical of the name, but once tasted, they were devoured.
My 12 month old son didn't say much other than, "mmmmmmnnnn", over and over again. I think that meant he liked them. I would definitely try this recipe again.
