Recipe was taken from The Fannie Farmer CookBook, the chapter on “Muffins”, Recipe is on page 592 of the Twelfth Edition.

Note from The Fannie Farmer CookBook:  What could be nicer than warm muffins wrapped in a napkin on the morning breakfast table?  And they are so quick and easy to make, particularly since the ingredients are only lightly mixed, not beaten smooth. .
