YEAST MUFFINS



Yeast Muffins image

In the mood for bread but not all the work? These fit the bill. These have the texture of a muffin but with all the taste of a sour-dough bread. Yummy when spread with butter, jam, OR eaten on their own. I found this recipe from Mary Bowles on Astray and want to give credit. I couldn't find this recipe on Zaar and think it would be a lovely addition to the database. If you do not have self rising flour on hand don't shy away! Its very easy to make. 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt for every cup of all purpose flour.
