Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons wheat germ
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 egg, well beaten
3/4 cup milk
apricot or other preserves
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Sift flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a mixing bowl; add wheat germ. Cut in shortening and peanut butter. In a separate bowl, beat egg with milk; add all at once to the first mixture. Stir just until moistened. Spoon batter into greased large muffin pans, filling about 2/3 full. Spoon about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of preserves into the center of each. Bake at 400° for about 25 minutes, or until done.
Makes about 10 muffins.
If you notice a hole in the upper left-hand corner of your Farmers' Almanac, don't return it to the store! That hole isn't a defect; it's a part of history. Starting with the first edition of the Farmers' Almanac in 1818, readers used to nail holes into the corners to hang it up in their homes, barns, and outhouses (to provide both reading material and toilet paper). In 1910, the Almanac's publishers began pre-drilling holes in the corners to make it even easier for readers to keep all of that invaluable information (and paper) handy.
