Homemade Recipes

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 egg

1 cup buttermilk

4 tablespoons (1/4 cup or half a stick) melted butter

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup raisins

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another large bowl, beat together the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and oil. Gradually beat in the flour mixture until just moistened. Fold in the raisins.

Fill each muffin cup about three-fourths full. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm or cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container.
