Muffin Mix Recipe
Ingredients:
- 8 c. flour*
- 3 c. sugar
- 3 tbsp. baking powder
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 tbsp. cinnamon
*You can substitute wheat flour for the white flour if you like, or substitute part of the white flour with another kind of flour. In my mix I used 6 c. white flour and 2 c. oat flour.
If you are wanting to make a gluten free muffin mix, then substitute your favorite gluten free flour blend instead. Just make sure it doesn’t already have baking powder added to it.
Muffin Recipe
- 2 3/4 c. muffin mix
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 c. milk
- 1/2 c. butter or margarine, melted
This recipe makes a basic muffin. You can customize this recipe by adding 1 cup of blueberries, chopped apples, cranberries, raisins, chocolate chips, etc.
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Stir all ingredients together in a bowl until blended. Fill muffin tins 2/3 full and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Storing for Future Use
To store your muffin mix, choose an airtight container. Glass or plastic jars work well. Make sure it seals tightly to keep air and moisture out.
Label the container with the date. This way, you know when you made it. Store it in a cool, dry place like a pantry. Your muffin mix can last for up to three months. Always shake the container before using to break up any clumps. This ensures an even mix when you are ready to bake!
