ACORN MUFFIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Whisk sugar and butter together until sugar is mostly dissolved. Stir in baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add vinegar. Pour in flour slowly; make a small indent in the flour. Crack egg into the indent. Mix batter slightly and gradually pour in milk, mixing until just combined. Fold in Cheddar cheese.
• Spoon batter into the muffin cups until 3/4 full.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and add the acorn grits and berries. Stir to combine. You want a thick, sticky batter. Add a little buttermilk if it's too tight, one tablespoon at a time.
• Fill the muffin tin with the batter evenly, then sprinkle the maple sugar over them as a topping. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until a toothpick comes out cleanly when poked into a muffin. Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.
