Yield: 12 muffins
Bake: 30 mins 375°F plus cooling
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened

1. Heat oven to 375 degree F. Line twelve 3-inch or fourteen 2-1/2-inch muffin-pan cups with paper liners.
2. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Beat butter and 1 cup sugar in a large mixer bowl at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add dry ingredients alternately with milk and vanilla, beginning and ending with dry ingredients, until batter is smooth.

To bake our muffins with the best summer berries well into winter, arrange unwashed fresh berries in a single layer 1/2 inch apart on cookie sheets; freeze until firm. Transfer to plastic freezer bags.
-
Use paper liners to help retain the muffins' shape and to make them easy to remove from the pan.
