Blueberry Muffins Recipe 2

I decided to try out a new recipe, and it was worth it! The original I used you can find here – Sally’s

For mine I halved the measurements to make only 6, and just kept the topping to sugar and cinnamon.

Sugar topping- mix together and leave until end

50g brown sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Muffins –

110g Plain Flour

1/2 tsp baking powder & 1/2 tsp of baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

55g butter at room temperature

50g granulated sugar & 25g brown sugar

60g plain yoghurt

1 large egg at room temperature

30ml milk at room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

105g blueberries

Method –

Mix the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda together and set aside.

Cream the butter and sugar together until creamy (either by hand or using a handmixer), add the egg and beat well until creamy again. Then add the yoghurt and vanilla extract and beat again until fully combined.

Add the flour mixture slowly, beating in until smooth and all the flour has been assimilated, then fold in the blueberries.

Put into greased baking tray or muffin cases, and then spoon some of the sugar and cinnamon topping on each one, pressing on it firmly to make sure it stays.

Cook at 200°c (fan) for 5 mins, then turn down to 160°c (fan) for 20 minutes. Once done,remove from the oven and leave in the tray for another 5 minutes, then place on cooling rack. Then eat and enjoy.

Blueberry & Apple Muffin Recipe

Thought it might be nice to try some apple and blueberry muffins. As the weather changes, it feels like cake times are coming. Or already here…

110g butter

250g caster sugar

250g plain flour

2 eggs

150ml milk

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

120g blueberries

80g grated apple

Some cinnamon

Cream the butter and sugar together, add eggs and mix until smooth. Sieve in the flour, baking powder and salt. Add cinnamon. Beat together, adding the milk until smooth. Hand mix through the apple and lightly crushed blueberries.

Fill muffin cases – this made 12, but I filled the cases quite high to get the towering muffin look.

180 degrees for around 25 minutes. (170 for fan assisted oven).
