Has anyone got a recipe for American Muffins?!
I've been out and bought a muffin baking tray, but in my English cookery books I can't find a recipe for them (admittedly I haven't got many cookery books) I fancy doing either berry ones, or chocolate ones!.
And some tips on ensuring they rise well would be a help!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can find recipes online for just about anything!. The one thing to remember about making muffins is not to over mix the batter!. If you think it is about right, you have over mixed it, and you will have pointed muffins!. This is the very basic muffin recipe:
grease pan or use paper muffin tin liners
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup oil
1 cup milk
3 tsp baking powder
1 egg
pinch of salt
mix lightly, and fold in 1 cup berries
I like to sprinkle the muffins with sugar before baking
bake at 400 for 20 minutes
if you want chocolate muffins, you just add chocolate chips instead of berriesWww@FoodAQ@Com

I just buy the cake mix boxes to make my muffins!. You buy the cupcake paper sleeves and place then in the tray!. You can add extras to your liking!.

What 'American-style' muffins means is that the muffins are made, not from a yeast dough like the English Muffin, but rather they use a chemical leavener (baking powder or baking soda)!. Maybe it would be better to describe them as a cross between a bread and a cake!. American-style muffins can be further divided into two types: bread-like and cake-like!. Each type has its own technique for mixing the batter!. Less sugar and butter makes a bread-like muffin!. A higher sugar and butter content makes a cake-like muffin!. Once you determine which type of muffin you prefer, choosing recipes to try becomes easier!. A basic muffin batter contains flour, sugar, baking powder/soda, eggs, a fat (liquid or solid), and milk (buttermilk, yogurt, sour cream)!. Often times fruit, nuts, chocolate, vanilla extract, spices, cornmeal, bran, oats are added to give the muffins flavor!. Sometimes a streusel topping or glaze is used which not only adds flavor and texture but it can transform a plain basic muffin into something special!.The 'perfect' American Muffin is symmetrical with a domed top!. The surface of the muffin should be bumpy and the volume of the batter should have almost doubled during baking!. The muffin should feel light for its size and when cut in half its interior should be moist and tender with no tunnels!. American muffins can be either sweet or savory and are traditionally served warm for breakfast!. They are best eaten the day they are made or frozen!.
Good Luck

Granny, these are all great recipes and any I add would be redundant!. However, I tasted a wonderful muffin the other day!. It was a basic apple muffin recipe to which had been added cooked, well drained, crumbled savory sausage, about 1/2 cup!. It was divine with hot coffee for breakfast!Www@FoodAQ@Com
My old boss, Fred Wolferman, ran out of muffin pans during the Great Depression!. He used tuna tins instead!. That's how come his muffins are so big!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Use recipe for French muffins, then add courage!.
I didn't want to disappoint you, we Americans really are that smug!. ;-)
OK all kidding aside here's a couple of good ones!.
Cinnamon Blueberry (or maybe some of those awesome Gooseberrys you have Mmmmmm)
Ingredients:
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups blueberries (7 1/2 oz)
Special equipment: a muffin pan with 12 (1/2-cup) muffin cups; 12 foil or paper muffin liners (optional w/ non-stick pans)
Preparation:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F!. Put liners in muffin cups!.
Whisk together butter, brown sugar, milk, and egg in a bowl until combined well!. Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl!. Add milk mixture and stir until just combined!. Fold in blueberries gently!.
Divide batter among muffin cups and bake until golden brown and a wooden pick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes!.
Chocolate Chunk Muffin
Ingredients:
Ingredients3/4 of a stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 large egg
2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Preparation:
Getting ready:
Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F!. Butter or spray the 12 molds in a regular-size muffin pan or fit the molds with paper muffin cups!. Alternatively, use a silicone muffin pan, which needs neither greasing nor paper cups!. Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet!.
Melt the butter and half the chopped chocolate together in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water; or do this in a microwave!. Remove from the heat!.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt!. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg and vanilla extract together until well combined!. Pour the liquid ingredients and the melted butter and chocolate over the dry ingredients and, with the whisk or a rubber spatula, gently but quickly stir to blend!. Don't worry about being thorough—a few lumps are better than overmixing the batter!. Stir in the remaining chopped chocolate!. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin molds!.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until a thin knife inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean!. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool 5 minutes before carefully removing each muffin from its mold!.
