I was browsing through the Granny's Muffin House cookbook for something special to bake for Easter and was surprised to find a recipe for Mint Muffins. It had never occurred to me to bake mint into muffins. We had some fresh mint leftover from a meal we made the week before so I decided to use some to make this treat. As with most muffin recipes this was was pretty simple.
First I sifted together:
2 cups flour
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
1/4 c sugar
Next, I stirred in one egg, 1/3 c. melted butter, and 3/4 c. milk
In a separate bowl I mixed 1/4 c. vinegar with 1 c. chopped mint leaves and then added the mixture to the rest of the ingredients.
After the muffin tin was filled I baked at 400 for 20 minutes.
These are reminiscent of the butter mints that you sometimes find on your way out of restaurants.
