    Just for fun. In a Lenten spirit, I turned to what I had on hand this morning. Frozen raspberries instead of blueberries. No milk, so I used plain yogurt. They turned out fabulously - simple and light, not too sweet, and pink, errr, I mean, rose colored.

    Musicians have to eat, too.


    2 eggs
    3/4 cup vegetable oil
    1 cup plain, non fat yogurt
    1/3 cup sugar (and a little for sprinkling on top before they're baked)

    3 cups self rising flour (I live in the sunny south!)
    1 small package unsweetened frozen raspberries, thawed, with juice


    Oven at 400, 20-25 minutes. 12 muffins.

    As clever a cook as you are an organizer, director, and singer. I'm impressed, Arlene.
  • For those without self rising flour in the cupboard... just substitute 1 cup flour, 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder and 1/2 tsp. salt for each cup of self-rising flour.

    Baking powder is a tool of the devil.... ;-)

    But I think I'll try the muffins!

    I just printed your recipe. It sounds wonderful.
  • I know it's been awhile, but I finally made this recipe this morning... rave reviews from the boys! Thanks.
