The basic muffin recipe here is a Delia Smith one (from her
summer collection) that I have been using for very nearly 20 years! It’s a very adaptable recipe, easy to scale
up or down and you can add whatever variety of fruits you have to hand.
For 12 muffins :
10oz plain flour
½ tsp salt
1tsp baking powder
3oz caster sugar
8fl oz milk
4oz butter (melted)
1 egg
4oz redcurrants (or blueberries, blackcurrants, cranberries
etc!)
Simply sift the flower into a bowl together with the salt
and baking powder. Add the sugar and stir together.
Melt the butter and leave to cool slightly. Beat the eggs and add to the milk, then add
the cooled butter.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a
gentle folding action until both are combined.
Rinse and add the fruit to the bowl and stir.
Spoon into muffin cups and bake for 30 minutes at 200oC/400oF/gas
mark 6.
