Blueberry Muffins the old way

This is the text book that my
Grandmother used when she was in high school.  She was born
in 1912 and spent her adult life as a home economist for her
family.  After I found her text books, sadly after she passed
away, I understood so much more about the way she lived her
life. 

 

Can you see that this book was published in 1927, 

This if you can read it is the recipe I used tonight for the blue berry muffins that I decided to make for my family for breakfast.  I was able to purchase fresh blueberry's at the store. 

The recipe calls for 2 cups of flour, (I used whole wheat unbleached), 1 cup of milk or liquid.  ( I didnt have any plain white milk but I did have butter milk so we will see how that works)  It was thick enough that I DID have to add some water to get it all mixed together well. 

1 egg, (which was fresh) 

2 T of sugar

2 t. of baking powder

2 T of melted butter for the fat. 

To that mixture I added about 3/4 cup of the blueberries because I like a lot.. the recipe called for 1/2. 

Bake in a "medium" oven.. which for us would be around 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. 

I think they will be yummy.

Ready to go into the oven, yum yum!!!!

 OUT of the oven.... Can't wait till morning.  A cup of coffee, a muffin and a container of greek yogurt.  What a great thing to look forward to!!! 



Now, what do we do with the rest of the blueberries?  Make FACES Of Course!!!!!
