Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shortening
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently, 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a muffin tin with 12 cups and give it a light coating of grease to prevent the muffins from sticking.
3
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to create a harmonious blend. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4
In another bowl, whisk eggs until they become smooth and silky. Gradually add milk to the eggs, stirring continuously until well combined.
5
Now, gently fold the egg mixture into the dry ingredients until they form a cohesive and moist batter.
6
Pour the prepared batter evenly into each of the greased muffin cups, taking care not to overfill them.
7
Finally, place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake until the tops are golden brown, approximately 20 minutes.
