Time 30m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup white flour
2/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup cornmeal
1/3 cup oats
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup maple syrup
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled slightly
3/4 cup dried fruit (may mix dried cherries, raisins, and chopped prunes)

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400*. Line a muffin tin with paper cups.
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk with the maple syrup, eggs, and butter.
Pour the liquids over the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Don't overmix - these are muffins; they don't need to be real smooth. Stir in the fruit.
Spoon the batter into the muffin cups and bake for about 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into one of the muffins comes out clean. Cool well before removing from the pan.
Eat fresh or wrap and freeze for another time. These rewarm perfectly in the microwave, or you can just defrost them on the counter for an hour or so.
