Ingredients
Dry mix (full 8 batches)
- 12 cups flour (all-purpose, or a 1-to-1 gluten-free blend with xanthan gum)
- 4½ cups sugar
- 4½ tablespoons baking powder
- 3 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 teaspoons ground nutmeg
Per batch
- 2 cups mix
- ½ cup shortening or oil
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Apple cinnamon add-in (per batch)
- 1 cup diced apple
- ½ teaspoon additional cinnamon
Equipment
- mixing bowl
- muffin pan
- airtight jar
Directions
- Stir the dry ingredients together well and store in an airtight container.
- To bake: heat the oven to 400°F. Stir the wet ingredients and add-ins into 2 cups of the mix just until combined (lumps are fine).
- Fill paper-lined cups about three-quarters full.
- Bake for 18 to 21 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then on a rack. (For mini muffins, bake at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes.)
Notes
Storage: about 6 months airtight (all-purpose); about 4 months for the gluten-free version (well sealed, certified GF baking powder). Zucchini muffins: 2 cups mix, 1 cup shredded zucchini lightly squeezed, 1 egg, ⅓ cup oil or melted butter, ¼ to ⅓ cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla, ½ teaspoon cinnamon; rest 5 minutes; 375°F for 18 to 22 minutes.
