Ooh, we just found a new recipe we love! They are good with or without the raisins. To make a dozen you will need to double this recipe.
Enjoy!
Irish Soda Muffins
From Taste of Home
"Who says muffins have to be boring? These little gems are always a hit.," says Camille Wisniewski of Jackson, New Jersey. "I subsitute blueberries when they are in season for the raisins."
INGREDIENTS
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons beaten egg (2 eggs if doubling)
1/3 cup raisins
SERVINGS 6
DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, combine the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk the sour cream, oil and egg; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in raisins.
Fill six greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 400° for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 6 muffins.

Ooh, very yum! I wonder if I could leave out the vege oil?
I'm reading fast and read - they're good with or without rain - LOL! They look yummey :-)
HI Leonie-
I am not sure you can leave it out. There really isn't very much- are you doing that for health reasons? When I make my pumpkin bread, it calls for a CUP of oil! Yikes. So I put in 2/3 C apple sauce and 1/3 C oil which is not too bad as it makes 2 big loaves.
What do you think?
Beate, why do you have 'rain on the brain'? lol lol
I think you all will like them though they are not as healthy as the whole grain things you enjoy. Oh well, almost more of a dessert breadfast... :) Well not that bad!
I'm going to make these today - it's been raining! I live in south tx, it doesn't rain for days in a row in the summer!!!! Now I know for sure I wouldn't live in Seattle, LOL.
