1 3/4 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons of sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup dried cranberries and 1/2 cup dried blueberries, mixed with 2
tablespoons of sugar
In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt, and 6 tablespoons of
sugar. In a small bowl beat the egg, milk and oil together. Stir into dry
ingredients just until moistened. Stir in dried berries. Fill greased, low,
flat muffin cups 3/4 full. I use muffin top pans. Sprinkle with coarse
sugar. Bake at 400 degrees for 13 minutes or until they test done. Watch
that they don't burn! Cool for 10 minutes then remove from pan to a wire
rack.
* The secret is the use of dried cranberries and blueberries rather than
fresh ones. The flavor is more concentrated and they can be made year round.
