    Sunday Dinner

    List of Ingredients




    4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon plus 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon each baking soda and salt
    3/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
    3/4 cup 1% low-fat milk
    1 cup (2 sticks) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
    1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
    3 large eggs
    3/4 stick unsalted butter, melted
    Cinnamon sugar (1 cup sugar mixed with
    1 tablespoon ground cinnamon)
    Jelly (optional)
    powdered sugar (optional)

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat regular size (2 1/2-inch) muffin cups
    with nonstick spray.

    In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
    until well blended.

    In a small bowl or 2 cup measure, whisk yogurt and milk until blended.

    Put butter (2 sticks and 2 tablespoons) in a large bowl. Beat with
    mixer on medium until creamy. Gradually add sugar and beat 5 minutes
    or until lighter, fluffy and doubled in volume. Beat in eggs 1 at a
    time until just blended, scraping sides of bowl after each addition.

    With a rubber spatula, fold in 1/3 of the flour, the 1/2 the yogurt
    mixture. Fold 1/2 the remaining flour, remaining yogurt, then
    remaining flour until well blended. Scrape a scant 1/3 cup into each
    prepared muffin pan. If filling with jelly, add 1/2 the 1/3 cup, add a
    tsp of jelly and then add the remaining batter to cover.

    Bake 30 minutes or until golden. Place on wire rack until just cool
    enough to handle. Then remove muffins from pan to rack.

    One at a time, lightly brush entire muffin with butter, then roll in
    cinnamon sugar to coat. Return to rack and cool completely.

    NOTE: I used powdered sugar on some and did not brush with the butter
    first. You can also make a glaze and glaze them. Let your imagination
    run wild to create your own doughnuts!!!!!
