Very best muffins?

[serene]

I'll search around, too, but anyone feel like sharing your favorite tried-and-true muffin recipe? I'm going to be helping out on an early-morning picket line on Wednesday, and I want to take muffins to share with the strikers.

Sure! Even though you didn't say please. ;)

CHAMPION CHEESE MUFFINS
Source: Alison Holst's Marvellous Muffins
Yield: 12 muffins

2 cups grated tasty (sharpish cheddar) cheese
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon sugar
pinch of cayenne pepper (I just grind in a little black pepper)
1 egg
1 cup milk

Measure the grated cheese, self-raising flour, salt, sugar and cayenne pepper into a bowl. Mix lightly with your fingertips to combine.

In a small container beat the egg and milk until evenly combined. Pour all the liquid onto the dry ingredients, then fold the two mixtures together, taking care not to over-mix.

Spoon mixture into 12 greased or sprayed medium muffin pans. Bake at 210C/425F for about 12 minutes, until muffins spring back in the middle and are golden brown. Remove to a rack to cool.
