1/2 corn oil
2 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 Tablespoon lemon zest
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

GLAZE:
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Preheat
oven to 375 degrees F.
In
a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the corn oil and eggs
until well blended. Add the sugar and continue beating for 2 minutes
or until the mixture is creamy. Add lemon zest and lemon juice.
In
a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and
salt. Using a wooden spoon, stir all dry ingredients into the creamy
mixture. Be careful not to over mix.
Gently
fold in the huckleberries or blueberries, using a rubber spatula.
Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line the tin with paper muffin cups.
Spoon the batter into cups until they are three-quarters full.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until muffins are golden brown.
While
muffins are baking, prepare the lemon glaze. In a small bowl, combine
the powdered sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Stir and set aside.
Remove
muffins from the oven and pierce each muffin 6 to 8 times with a
skewer. Spoon the lemon glaze over the muffins while they are still
warm. Makes 12 muffins.
