Description:

From 'The Tightwad Gazette' books comes a recipe that was made to be adapted to the ingredients you have on hand. Modify it according to your blood or geno-type, and it is good for Hunters, Gatherers, Teachers, Explorers, Nomads, and Warriors.

Ingredients:
  • 2-2 1/2 cups grain (flour or up to 1 cup cooked grain)
  • 1 cup milk (buttermilk, soy milk, yogurt, etc.; could probably also substitute juice)
  • Up to ¼ cup fat (ghee, oil, butter)
  • 1 egg (or substitute)
  • Up to ½ cup sweetener (honey, agave, molasses, etc.)
  • 2 teaspoons [baking powder Recipes]
  • ½ teaspoon Sea Salt
  • Up to 1 1/2 cups additions (nuts, fruit, seasonings, etc.)
How to make it:
  1. Combine dry ingredients.
  2. Combine wet ingredients.
  3. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined; the batter should be lumpy.
  4. Grease muffin tin and fill cups two-thirds full.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven at 400º for 20 minutes (give or take 5 minutes).
  6. Or, bake a double batch in a 9x13” cake pan.
  7. When done, cut into 15 pieces.
  8. If you use a cooked grain, separate your eggs and beat the whites stiff before folding it into the batter. Or, blenderize all wet/moist ingredients together (except for those that need to retain their texture), which beats and fluffs up the eggs.
    Note:
    This recipe can be easily altered to make either sweet(like with fruit) or savory (cheesy-herb) muffins, depending on your preference.
