-temperature
3/4 c Sugar
2 Eggs; lightly beaten
1 c Buttermilk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly grease a 12-cup muffin pan. In a
bowl, beat butter and sugar until well-combined; add eggs and mix
thoroughly. Stir in buttermilk. Into a large bowl sift flour, baking
powder, baking soda and salt; make a well in center. Pour buttermilk
mixture into well and use a rubber spatula to blend with quick strokes. Do
not overmix batter; it should still be slightly lumpy. Spoon batter into
muffin tins, filling them three-quarters full, and bake until slightly
puffed and golden, 18 to 20 minutes. This recipe yields 12 muffins.

Variations: Add 1/2 cup of one of following ingredients: rinsed fresh
blueberries; raisins or currants; chopped apples tossed with 1/2 teaspoon
cinnamon; or poppy seeds tossed with 2 teaspoons lemon zest or 3 drops
lemon oil.
