List of Ingredients
18 cups flour
5 cups sugar
2 1/4 cups buttermilk blend or non fat dry milk
6 Tbl baking powder
2 Tbl baking soda
2 Tbl salt
3 Tbl ground cinnamon
3 tsp ground nutmegRecipe
Stir together well, breaking up lumps. Store in a large airtight container labeled with the date and contents in a cool, dry place.
Shelf life: 6 to 8 months.
Makes enough for about 5 batches of 24 muffins each.
If desired, sugar can be omitted then stir in 1 cup honey for every 24 muffins as you make them.
TO MAKE 24 REGULAR SIZED MUFFINS:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat muffin tins with an oil/lecithin mixture, grease with shortening or butter, or spray with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, beat:
4 eggs
3 tsp. vanilla
2 cups water
1 cup oil or butter
(This measurement is up to your tastes and desires. We find them perfectly acceptable without ANY fat, but any amount of oil can be added up to one cup.)
Stir in:
5-1/2 cups muffin mix
and any additional ingredients (listed on chart) just until moistened. The batter should be lumpy. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown.
Muffins freeze well. To reheat frozen muffins, microwave on high for 30 seconds per muffin.
These two toppings would go well with almost any of the ABC muffins. Sprinkle mixture atop uncooked muffins before popping them into preheated oven:
