MAKE THESE CHERRY MUFFINS

  3. Stir together the flour, 3/4 cups sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  4. Add in the oil, milk, and egg. Stir together until well combined – do not worry about the occasional lump or small dry patch if it looks mostly uniform.
  5. Gently fold in the cherries, and then scoop into cupcake liners – 2/3 of the way full.
  6. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of sugar on top of each muffin for a crunchy topping.

Take these up a notch!!
Top these with Demerara sugar instead of normal white sugar. Why? Because Demerara is a really chunky sugar and it will give you that delicious, sweet crunch on the top.
