BEST EVER (AND MOST VERSATILE) MUFFINS!
These are wonderful for just throwing in your favorite ingredients---I don't need any other muffin recipes. Editing to add, based on a recent review: Be sure not to overmix muffins; if you do, they will be tough. They should still be lumpy when you are finished mixing them.

BASIC MUFFINS
What could be nicer than warm classic but basic muffins in a napkin on the morning breakfast table? And they are so quick and easy to make, particularly since the ingredients are only lightly mixed, not beaten smooth.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400.
- Grease 12 muffin cups, or 24 mini muffin cups.
- Combine dry ingredients, including dry additions (like nuts, chocolate chips, etc -- ) and spices.
- Combine wet ingredients, including wet additions (like banana, berries, pineapple, etc -- ).
- Spoon batter into muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full (perfectly ok if you have leftover batter to fill cups to top.).
- Bake for 18-20 minutes.
- NOTES:.
- To make non-sweet muffins, such as bacon and cheddar, just cut back on the sugar to 1 tablespoon. You can make your own "jiffy" corn muffins by substituting 1/2 cup corn meal for 1/2 cup of the flour, and using 2 tablespoons of sugar. Substitute peanut butter for the oil to give your muffins a peanutty taste (I make Elvis Muffins by using 2 mashed bananas, 1/2 cup chopped peanuts and then peanut butter for the oil.).
- If your additions are very wet (such as crushed pineapple) then use up to 1/2 cup more flour, to equal up to 2 cups total flour.
- Play around with this! It's easy and quick!

Steps:
- For the streusel topping:.
- Mix sugar, cinnamon and pinch of salt in a small bowl or work bowl of a food processor, add butter. If mixing by hand, use fingertips, a pastry blender, or 2 forks to blend the fat into dry ingredients until mixture looks like coarse irregular crumbs, with no visible lumps of butter. If mixing in a food processor, pulse about 10 times, then process 5 to 10 seconds, until there are no visible lumps of butter; stir in nuts. Set aside.
- For the muffins:.
- Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease the top surface of a 12-cup muffin pan; use liners, if necessary.
- Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour with next 4 ingredients in a medium bowl, set aside.
- Whisk together next 4 ingredients in a large bowl; whisk in buttermilk and vanilla. Gently whisk dry ingredients into wet ingredients to partially blend. Continue mixing batter with a rubber spatula, making sure that ingredients at the bottom are incorporated into batter fold in fruit. (Frozen fruit will help "firm" up batter. If batter seems too wet add a few more tablespoons of flour, up to 1/4 cup, to stiffen batter.).
- Using an ice-cream scoop, place a portion of batter into each muffin cup, filling to the brim. Sprinkle a portion of streusel topping over batter in each muffin cup.
- Bake 15 minutes, reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake 10 to 12 minutes or until muffins are golden brown and spring back when lightly pressed with fingertips. Let muffins cool in pan for 5 minutes then transfer them to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
- NOTES:.
- To simplify muffin making, quadruple the streusel topping recipe and freeze.
- Orange, lemon, or lime zests can be used to flavor the muffins, if you like.
- Lemon works well with blueberry.
- Orange zest with cranberry or rhubarb.
- Lime zest with banana chunks.
- Almost any fruit works in this recipe. Good choices include:.
- apples, cut into small dice.
- bananas, cut into firm, small chunks.
- blueberries.
- cranberries, coarsely chopped.
- dried sour cherries or cranberries.
- raspberries.
- rhubarb, diced (fresh or frozen).
- strawberries, quartered or cut into small dice.
- To prevent delicate, highly colored fruits like raspberries, cranberries, and blueberries from getting mashed and discoloring the batter, use semi frozen fruit.
- It is not necessary to use paper baking liners if the muffin tin is commercial, glazed, or nonstick.
