Bread Crumb Muffins are unique! They are also frugal, delicious, and fun to make. They are a fun recipe to make with your young kitchen helper. Plus Bread Crumb Muffins make a great snack, spread with some peanut butter and jelly.
This frugal recipe completely intrigued me. For some reason, we are either swimming in dry bread crumbs or completely out. Bread crumbs are one thing I never buy. Because I do not let any homemade bread go to waste...we often use bread crumbs in many of our recipes, like this recipe for Bread Crumb Muffins.
I was (very!) skeptical when I saw the recipe for these muffins. Then I found myself drowning in bread crumbs, and decide to just go ahead and make a batch! And I must tell you, we are glad I did. Bread Crumb Muffins are really wonderful, proof that delicious food often starts with the most basic of ingredients.
Go ahead, make a batch of Bread Crumb Muffins! They are frugal, delicious, and go great with a bowl of soup or stew.

Bread Crumb Muffins
adapted from: More with Less Cookbook
375-degree oven
1 c flour - we used pastry grind whole wheat
1/4 c sugar
1/2 t salt
1 T baking powder
1 egg
1 c milk
1 4 c oil or melted butter
1 c dry bread crumbs, we used whole wheat crumbs
Prepare the muffin tin in your preferred manner. I like to use pan spray, set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
Make a "well" in the center of the mixture, add the egg, milk, melted butter, and dry crumbs. Beat the egg into the milk and immediately combine all ingredients well.
Divide into 12 prepared muffin cups, bake 25 minutes or until done in your oven.
Note: These muffins are small in size, feel free to drop the batter into 8 prepared muffin cups and adjust the baking time as needed.

Cool slightly by gently loosening muffins, prop up sideways, to prevent soggy bottoms.
