Maple Syrup Muffins
Yield: 12 servings

1/4 c shortening or margarine
1/2 c sugar
1 t salt
1 1/2 c flour
1 T baking powder
3/4 c rolled oats
1/2 c milk
1/2 c maple syrup

1 T butter
1/2 c icing sugar
1 T maple syrup or more

Soften the shortening, blend in the sugar and salt; add the flour
sifted with the baking powder and blend with a pastry cutter till
the mixture is crumbly (or use food processor); mix in the rolled
oats. Blend the milk and syrup together in a measuring cup, pour
the mixture over the dry ingredients and stir just enough to moisten.
Drop into muffin tins and bake at 350F for 20 minutes.

While they are baking, combine the glaze ingredients and spread
over the muffins when they come out of the oven and have cooled
just a little bit.  Serve them warm.
