Best Ever (And Most Versatile) Muffins! Recipe #32734
These are wonderful for just throwing in your favorite ingredients---I don't need any other muffin recipes. Editing to add, based on a recent review: Be sure not to overmix muffins; if you do, they will be tough. They should still be lumpy when you are finished mixing them.

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil

- Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center.
- In a small bowl or 2-cup measuring cup, beat egg with a fork.
- Stir in milk and oil.
- Pour all at once into the well in the flour mixture.
- Mix quickly and lightly with a fork until moistened, but do not beat.
