How To make Apple Butter Muffins

***** NONE *****
2 c flour
3/4 c brown sugar
1 1/2 ts baking powder
1/4 ts baking soda
1/2 ts salt
1 ts cinnamon
1/2 ts ginger
3/4 c apple butter
1/2 c butter or margarine, melted
: and cooled 1/4 c skim milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 TB honey
1 ts vanilla
1/2 c raisins (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients (the first 7 ingredients) and make a well in the center. In smaller bowl, combine wet ingredients (the next 6 ingredients). Pour wet mixture into the "well" of the dry ingredients and stir just to combine (10-15 strokes). Fold in raisins with as few strokes as possible. Spoon batter into 12 muffin cups (if you don't use muffin liners, spray the pan with cooking spray). Bake 20-25 minutes, until cake tester comes out clean. Remove muffin tin to cooling rack and cool 5 mins. before removing muffins from tin. (Do *not* let muffins cool completely in the tin.) Recipe By : Jenni Miller From: Johnnye Tamaru
