Nancy's Sweet Muffins

.


My kids love these muffins. They are very plain, slightly sweet, and, very comforting. They are quick to make, if you need a bread for dinner, and I often make them when we are having a meal that just needs some "yum."

I call them Nancy's Sweet Muffins because my college roommate, Nancy, gave me her mom's recipe. Once during our college days, I joined Nancy for a weekend at her home in Toledo, and Nancy's mom, being a great cook and home ec teacher, made us a really wonderful, homey meal. These muffins were served along side the main dish. I can't remember another thing we ate, but I do remember these muffins. I guess my mom really never made special bread for dinner, so muffins, especially a slightly sweet muffin, were a real treat.

You can add blueberries, apples and cinnamon, chocolate chips, dried fruit, or even put a dot of jam in the center before you bake them, but we really just like them simple.
