Re: Muffins

Thank you Judd but I did mean the cake type as I have seen savoury ones in shops but they nearly always have bacon or ham in them

You are. Especially when they are cut in half, toasted and smothered in butter while they're still hot.

I think someone on here should send you a box of homemade muffins.
We used to have pikelets when I was a child, I like those.

...... right, I’ve decided I will treat myself to a muffin this coming week so that I know what you’re all talking about!

PS - I do like chocolate muffins!

Re: Muffins

Muffins are lovely!

Toasted with butter, yum!

My favourite are the cheese and black pepper ones, but you don't see them in many places, mainly in M and S around Christmas.

Re: Muffins

I make muffins quite often because they are really quick to make as nothing needs to be weighed and are single portion and hand held treats.
My favourite are blueberry muffins with a cinnamon crumble topping:
1. For the muffins
1 and 1/2 cups plain flour
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil (don’t use olive oil)
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 cup fresh blueberries
1.1. Mix together all dry ingredients
1.2. Mix together all wet ingredients
1.3. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients (don’t overmix)
1.4. Fold the blueberries into the batter
1.5. Fill muffin tin (lined with muffin cases)
2. For the crumble topping:
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup plain flour
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2.1. Mix together all dry ingredients
2.2. Melt the butter
2.3. Add melted butter to dry ingredients and mix with a fork or fingers to form large crumb(think German Streusel rather than English crumble)
3. To bake:
3.1 top the muffins with the crumble
3.2 Bake on the middle shelf of a pre-heated oven at 190 C for 20-25 minutes

Delicious with or without the crumble, eaten warm or cold
