Substitute for buttermilk:

1 cup milk, 1 tbsp. lemon juice, stir, let sit for 10 minutes.

Mel's notes: Like any muffin batter, don't overbeat it or the muffins will be tough. I make a bit more filling as we like them gooey.

Now I was just wondering if you could use regular milk instead of buttermilk? I don't use buttermilk all that often in recipes to keep it in the house. It goes bad before I find something else that intrigues me.
