Savory Tender Muffins

By Joelene

Ingredients

• 1 Tb. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. salt
• 2 tsps. sugar
• 10 Tbs. butter, softened
• 1 Tb. Dijon mustard
• 2 large eggs
• 1 1/2 cups plain yogurt

Preparation

Step 1

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position. heat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare flavorings. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Whisk mustard and eggs together, then beat into butter until pea-sized lumps form. Alternating by thirds, Beat in the dry ingredients and the yogurt until a smooth, very thick batter just forms. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with 1/2-cup capacity (or four mini-muffin tins) with vegetable cooking spray. Divide batter evenly among the cups. (A spring-action regular or mini ice cream scoop works well. The muffin cups will be full.) Bake until muffins are golden brown. Cool slightly in pan(s) set on a wire rack. Remove muffins and serve.
