Steps:

1. Combine all dry ingredients and store in an airtight container. This will make enough for several dozen muffins.
2. To make muffins. Use 2 3/4 cup mix with 1-2 eggs, 1/2 cup melted butter or oil, 1-2 tsp vanilla & 1 1/2-2 cups water or other liquid of choice. I just add my liquid until it resembles the consistency of pancake batter.
3. Stir in any stir in or combination of stir ins of choice.
4. Top with any desired topping, which is totally optional.
5. Spoon into prepared muffin tins. Either greased or paper lined.
6. Bake at 350' for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. **If you let these cool well, they will not stick as much to muffin paper.
