Muffins

So I have a juicer that I looooooove! And I've been saving the pulp and adding it to foods. So I made some muffins recently and wanted to save this basic muffin recipe.

Basic Muffins

Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 beaten egg
- 3/4 cup milk
-1/4 cooking oil
- salt
- pulp of whatever fruit you want (Or stick an orange, apple, etc., in a blender before adding it.

How to:
1- Grease or line muffin tin. Set aside. Set oven to 400 degrees
2- In a medium bowl, combine dry ingredients. Make a well in the center.
3- In a separate bowl, combine wet ingredients (including pulp). Add to well in dry ingredients. Mix together (batter should be lumpy).
4- Spoon into muffin tin.
5- Bake for 18-20 min. Cool, then eat!

NB: I added 3 TBS cocoa powder to the orange mix cos I love orange and chocolate together!
-Add apple and cinnamon (if you use apples, cut down on the oil).
-To add bananas, reduce milk to 1/2 and add 3/4 cups mashed bananas.
-Add blueberries or cranberries for fun! Hurrah!
-Add Streusel Topping from my Blueberry Streusel Muffins for added texture.
