Basic Muffins

1 1/2 cups organic flour or self rising
1/2 cup rapendura or white sugar
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup milk or other liquid such as OJ, fruit juice or really anything
1 egg
2 tsp. baking powder and a little salt (if not using self rising flour)
3/4 cup blueberries (see variations below)

Mix quickly just until moistened. Bake 350 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes

3/4 cup chopped apples and some cinnamon
3/4 cup any combo of berries
3/4 cup or less chocolate chips (make with orange juice for choc/orange muffins)
3/4 cup cranberries, orange zest and oj instead of milk

I have used peaches and peach juice from a can of peaches, pineapple juice.

For a really special treat mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add 3/4 cup apples and some cinnamon. Put half of the batter in the cups. Sprinkle cinn/sug combo over batter. Add rest of batter and push a small chunck of butter in the batter. Bake as directed
