Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 cup sweet milk, warmed

Instructions

  1. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
  2. Pour the batter into a greased muffin pan.
  3. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until the muffins are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions

For a lighter texture, you can sift the self-rising flour before mixing. If you don't have mayonnaise, Greek yogurt or sour cream can be used as a substitute. Adding herbs or cheese can enhance the flavor. To avoid overmixing, stir just until combined. These muffins are quick to prepare, similar to One Bowl Homemade Brownies in ease.

Serving Suggestions

These muffins are perfect for breakfast or as a snack. Serve them warm with butter or honey for added flavor. They pair beautifully with a cup of coffee or tea. For a heartier meal, enjoy them alongside Baked Hamburgers or a fresh salad for a delightful lunch option.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. To reheat, warm them in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or pop them in a toaster oven for a couple of minutes, restoring their freshly baked texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use whole milk instead of sweet milk?

Yes, whole milk can be used in place of sweet milk. Just warm it slightly before mixing with the other ingredients. The muffins will still turn out delicious and moist, maintaining the intended flavor profile.

How can I make these muffins healthier?

To make the muffins healthier, consider using whole wheat flour instead of self-rising flour and reducing the sugar. You can also add in some mashed bananas or applesauce for natural sweetness and moisture, making them a great choice for vegetarian recipes.

Can I freeze these muffins?

Absolutely! After they cool, wrap the muffins individually in plastic wrap or foil, then place them in a freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To enjoy, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat as needed.
