From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...It's hard to believe that anything this quick and simple to whip up could also be delicious. You'll just have to take my word for it until you try them for yourself. These muffins have an old-fashioned quality that makes folks nostalgic for the simplicity of grandma's kitchen. Berries and nut and other additions would come as times improved, but these were her most basic muffins and they got their flavor from a small amount of honey. That honey is a blessing and a curse. These muffins want to stick to the pan, so be sure to grease your muffin cups really well or you'll need a jack hammer to release them. I love to make these for morning coffee meetings. They are easy to transport and everyone seems to love them. I think you will, too. They are light, tender and delicious. Here's the recipe.
Honey Muffins...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite inspired by Taste of Home Magazine
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup honey
Directions
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease or line standard muffin cups with paper liners.
2) Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
3) Combine egg, milk, butter and honey in a small bowl.
4) Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until moistened.
5) Fill prepared muffin cups three-fourths full with batter. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Remove from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.

I love making muffins and can't wait to try these, I can almost smell and taste them now!
Looks so delicious and yes plain is good for me too!
I'm such a fan of plain baking - pound cake, heavy white cakes etc - so perhaps these will be for me too!
Non ho mai provato questi muffin, li proverò sicuramente ;)
Honey does the trick:)Of course simple things and especially when grandma made them are the best:)
I have a file folder marked "simple" and I'm putting this recipe in. I always have the ingredients on hand making it even simpler!!
Best,
Bonnie
Gorgeous muffins, looks awesome..
Lovely muffins! Simple and yummy! I would prefer these plain too! Have a nice day!
Simple and golden (in every sense of that word)
Simple recipes are pretty much my favorite. It's perfect when you can taste the ingredients as well... In this case, the honey. Would you say it's important to choose a dark honey, buckwheat for example????
i would love few of these right now with my coffee!!
Ummmmm.......
Mary strikes again!
Sometimes simple is the best! These sound wonderful and my mouth is watering thinking of them slathered with butter and a bit of raspberry jam!
Love simple and delicious..that's my favorite combination!
I love all that reminds me "old fashioned" recipes....have great days in Turkey.... are you still there, right??? xoxox, Flavia
That darn honey - complicates everything - but so delicious and worth the extra grease!

Mary, These muffins sound terrific! Simple to make and sweet to eat... Thanks for the recipe and the warning about greasing the muffin tin! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
These look very delicious! I love making recipes that use Honey in the fall.
They look awesome!Kisses,dear Mary!
Oh they look so good and healthy! i will make them for my son!
Congratulations on your great work!
Honey muffins looks awesome perfect.
I love using honey as a sweetener. It is a challenging one to use since it does stick and brown faster than sugar, but I think it's worth it. These look beautiful and I love the golden edges.
Look delicious Mary,have a good day....
They look and sound delicious. Sometimes the simplest things really are the best.

Looks perfect, Mary, for my Saturday morning girls group.
Fondly,
