Walnut Muffins

We were about to start an amazing journey from Sarajevo to Dubrovnik and these walnut muffins were fresh from the oven and ready to set off. 

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 cup vegetable oil

1 cup milk

1 cup ground walnuts

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 185 °C and lightly grease or line a muffin pan with paper liners. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add oil, milk beating well. Stir in vanilla and ground walnuts. With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture.
3. Divide batter among muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a muffin comes out clean, 20 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. Let cool in pan 10 minutes; transfer muffins to a rack to cool more. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if you like.
