Rosemary & Olive Oil
These cupcakes are good served right out of the oven with a nice summer pasta dish. Even served cool or re-warmed, they can replace a boring dinner roll to go alongside any meal.
Rosemary Biscuit Cupcakes:

2 1/2 cups flour

4 Teaspoons baking powder

  • Combine all dry ingredients(flour, baking powder, garlic salt & rosemary) together in a mixing bowl toss with fork until blended and set aside.
  • Whip butter and olive oil together in a mixing bowl.
  • Rub butter mixture with your fingers until it disappears into flour mixture. Pour milk into bowl and mix until it is a lump free dough. Drop a spoonful of batter into baking cups.

1 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
