Red Currant Muffins
Currants hold up so nicely baked into these yummy, golden cake-like muffins. The berries add tartness to the sweet mixture. These are great for breakfast, brunch or a snack.—Jane Larter, Hallock, Minnesota

I picked the currants from my garden and found this recipe to try. Very moist and flavorful. Made exactly as stated and then froze the muffins. When I want one, I just pop it out of the freezer and throw it in the microwave for about 20 seconds or so.
While the ultimate muffin that I made was light and tender with a wonderful sweet-tart flavor, the recipe, itself, was the issue! For this reason, I gave it only a 3-star rating. Before I stirred in the fresh currants, I noticed that the batter seemed unusually thick! Checking a few basic muffin recipes, I noted that all of those I use contain milk. This one did not! I decided to add about a quarter cup of milk and was very happy that I did! That being said, with the addition of milk, these muffins were delicious!
