EASIEST MUFFINS BY TRISHA YEARWOOD

Easiest Muffins by Trisha Yearwood image

I saw this on Trisha Yearwood's new cooking show, Trisha's Southern Kitchen, and wanted to try them mainly because they looked so simple and quick. They are yummy with a LOT of butter taste. I may try to cut back on the butter with my next batch. I think a little shredded cheese would be awesome in these too. She made it with her recipe for her Daddy's Brunswick Stew and I think this would be a nice biscuit to complement soup--or anything! Mmmm, mmmmm, good!

Time 25m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 sticks (1 cup) margarine, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 cups self-rising flour
Cooking spray

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
In an electric mixer, cream the margarine and sour cream. Add the flour and mix well. Drop large spoonfuls of the dough into a muffin pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray or lined with muffin cups. Bake for until the tops of the muffins are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

Using muffin liners will make cleanup a breeze and prevent muffins from sticking to the pan.
For a moister muffin, use buttermilk or yogurt instead of milk.
Add a tablespoon of melted butter or oil to the batter for a richer flavor.
Mix the dry ingredients together before adding them to the wet ingredients to avoid lumps.
Do not overmix the batter, as this will result in tough muffins.
Fill the muffin cups no more than 2/3 full, as they will rise during baking.
Bake the muffins in a preheated oven to ensure even cooking.
Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin to check for doneness. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
